The Anti-Defamation League gave Harvard University and 12 other schools a failing grade for policies to protect Jewish students from antisemitism on campus. The ADL said it selected 85 of the top national and liberal arts colleges for assessment this year and chose those with the highest Jewish student populations. It assigned grades from A through F in a Campus Antisemitism Report Card released Thursday.
The ADL said it worked with a panel of experts to come up with a list of 21 criteria for assessment that was split into three broad groups: administrative action and policies, incidents on campus, and Jewish student life on campus. It provided each school with a questionnaire, ultimately receiving responses from 84% of the campuses it assessed. ADL also conducted research to determine which campus fulfilled the criteria and looked at public information including high-profile investigations.
