Harvard University Not Cooperating With DA’s Investigation Into Students Charged With Assault of Jewish Classmate
Harvard University has refused to cooperate with the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office’s investigation into the assault of an Israeli business school student that occurred during a protest in October 2023. That decision has delayed the ongoing criminal case against two of the students caught on camera accosting their Jewish classmate, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.
Assistant District Attorney Ursula Knight, who leads the office’s Civil Rights and High-Risk Victims Unit and is prosecuting two of the students who participated in the assault, during a Wednesday hearing admonished the university.
“Harvard police essentially refused to investigate,” she said, according to an attendee, adding that the school’s behavior “has been a shock to the Commonwealth.”

Pro-Hamas Students Block Entry To Campus, Vandalize Statue on First Day of Classes
Anti-Israel students brought chaos to Columbia University on Tuesday morning, returning the campus to its new normal: dozens of keffiyeh-clad protesters blocked the entrance to the school, praising Hamas, vandalizing a statue, and clashing with police. At least one group involved aims to bring violence to America, while others called on their followers to help shut down the university.
Agitators with Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD) and the school’s Students for Justice in Palestine chapter prevented students from entering campus, promising that “this is just the beginning.” A flyer posted to social media advertising the protest encouraged attendees to “wear a mask,” “bring noisemakers,” and to “shut it down.” And Columbia’s Students for Justice in Palestine chapter released a statement praising Hamas founder Ahmed Yassin and the terrorist group’s current chairman, Yahya Sinwar.
NOW: On first day of classes, Pro-Palestine protesters have created a picket outside of Columbia University, demanding to “Shut It Down” and telling students – “Don’t Go to Classes, Do Not Enter, Call Out Sick”.
Huge line of students has formed around the block to go in.

Anti-Israel Harvard students condemn new vice president: ‘War criminals not welcome’
An anti-Israel group of Harvard University students condemned the recent appointment of the school’s new vice president and general counsel due to her former leadership roles at the U.S. Defense Department and a defense company that sold weapons to Israel.
Harvard Out of Occupied Palestine, or HOOP, hung a banner stating, “War Criminals Not Welcome Here” alongside the name of the new appointee, Jennifer O’Connor, who took the helm July 29, the Harvard Gazette reported.
The group also hung a second banner over the summer reading, “Harvard Funds Genocide,” according to images posted on Instagram. The post’s caption criticized O’Connor for a “lack of experience” in higher education and her former position as general counsel for the Department of Defense.
“Yesterday, Harvard announced its appointment of Jennifer O’Connor as the new Vice President and general counsel of the university,” the Instagram post stated.
“She has 0 experience in higher education positions, yet her time as the former general counsel to the US Department of Defense and former Tech Law VP to weapons company Northrop Grumman make her a perfect fit at this complicit institution.”
Muslim groups: Emory ‘institution of particular concern’ due to treatment of pro-Hamas activists– www.thecollegefix.com

Excerpt:
The Council on American-Islamic Relations and American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee have designated Emory University as an “institution of particular concern” due to its “hostility” towards anti-Israel student activists.
According to The Emory Wheel (which follows CAIR’s lead and refers to the activists as “anti-genocide”), the groups allege that Emory, along with George Washington University and UCLA, “set the standard for creating a thoroughly hostile and dangerous environment” for Muslims and Palestinians.
Back in April, CAIR-Georgia and Palestine Legal filed a federal civil rights complaint on behalf of Emory’s Students for Justice in Palestine, alleging the school created a “hostile anti-Palestinian and Islamophobic environment.”
Two months later, CAIR-Georgia claimed Emory was “tokenizing” and “furthering a pattern of exclusion” against Muslim students because its search for a full-time Muslim chaplain wasn’t “inclusive” enough.
At a recent press conference, CAIR’s Farah Afify alleged Emory has cultivated a “culture in which discrimination and harassment towards Palestinian Arabs and Muslims was reportedly permitted and even enabled.”
