University of Pennsylvania President Resigns Amid Controversy Over Antisemitism Testimony

University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill has resigned from her position following criticism over her comments during a congressional hearing on campus antisemitism. Magill, along with counterparts from Harvard and MIT, faced scrutiny for their responses to questions about whether calling for the genocide of Jews would violate their institutions' code of conduct. Magill's resignation comes after intense backlash from the White House, lawmakers, high-profile alumni, and donors. The incident has sparked a congressional investigation into Penn, Harvard, MIT, and other universities.
