"Examining College Antisemitism: Contentious Exchanges, Emergency Meetings, and the 'Genocide' Question"

The presidents of Harvard, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania faced contentious exchanges during a congressional hearing on antisemitism on college campuses. They were questioned about their response to students calling for the genocide of Jews, chants of "intifada" on Harvard's campus, a Palestinian writers festival at Penn featuring Roger Waters, and the decision to fly the Ukrainian flag but not the Israeli flag. The administrators faced criticism for their responses, with Republicans pushing for more definitive answers.
