US Federal Judge Dismisses Trump Administration Lawsuit Against Harvard University
A U.S. federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by the Trump administration against Harvard University, which alleged the university failed to protect Jewish and Israeli students from harassment during pro-Palestinian protests. Judge Richard Stearns ruled that the administration did not provide sufficient evidence of ongoing civil rights violations under federal law. The court found the reported incidents isolated and not indicative of systemic discrimination. The lawsuit was part of a broader campaign by the Trump administration addressing campus protests and university policies.
