🫨 that was waay after I graduated from college.

I'm in a biracial marriage with kids.  I guess they also did not allow multiracial children up until 2000? Wow.  That's pointedly obvious discrimination.

Back to Harvard: but, what public policy is Harvard violating exactly?   DEI is just "equal opportunity" badged in a different. How is that against public policy? Is Trump saying that they don't want EO anymore?   Is allowing pro Palestinian protests against public policy? That would be against 1A, no?[/quote]
Did you even read Harvard's own report on anti-Semitism on campus? That report is littered with smoking guns.

Here's what it said in part...

“Muslim women who wear hijab and pro-Palestinian students wearing keffiyehs spoke about facing verbal harassment, being called ‘terrorists,’ and even being spat upon,” the task force said.

“The issue of doxxing was particularly highlighted as a significant concern that affects not only physical safety and mental well-being, but also future career prospects,” it added, referring to the practice of disclosing a person’s personal or identifying information online.

Nearly half of Muslim students and staff surveyed reported feeling physically unsafe on campus, while 92 percent said they believed they would face professional or academic penalties for expressing political views.

“As Muslim students we have been living in constant fear,” the taskforce quoted an unnamed student as saying.

“There have been trucks driving around campus for months, displaying the faces of Muslim students… my peers who have lost their jobs simply for being in the leadership of Muslim faith organisations have been left out to dry once they had their offers revoked… If there were antisemitic trucks driving around campus and planes flying over with antisemitic slogans, I cannot help but believe Harvard would have done more to stop it.”

The task force on combating anti-Semitism and anti-Israeli bias said in its report that bias had been “fomented, practiced, and tolerated” at Harvard and within academia more widely.

In an online survey, 26 percent of Jewish students reported feeling physically unsafe, while 39 percent said they did not feel at home at the university, the task force said.

Nearly 60 percent of Jewish students reported experiencing “discrimination, stereotyping, or negative bias” due to their opinions, with only 25 percent believing there was no “academic or professional penalty” for expressing their views, the task force said.[/quote]

Appears that there was more anti-Muslim activities going on than antisemitism.
