Support from higher education administrators for antisemitic protesters came back to haunt one of the Ivy League’s most heralded institutions. This continuation of bleeding-heart attitudes toward hate-filled actions against innocent people has ripped away faith in higher education.

Harvard University is a prime example of what happens when elitist liberals take over and ruin the education aspirations of a generation. The chief administrator there ignored warnings and allowed violent agitators to control college policies while placing innocent students at risk.

The truth regarding the lead-up to campus riots was exposed after a congressional investigation. Harvard’s former president who was praised by liberals is in hot water for what she didn’t do to stop the violence.

The House Education and the Workforce Committee report detailed how Harvard President Claudine Gay failed to act on recommendations to “combat antisemitism in our community” from the Antisemitism Advisory Group (AAG). This was a group she formed to make the campus safer, and she attended the meetings.

From The Daily Wire:
“The Committee’s report proves that former President Gay and Harvard’s leadership propped up the university’s Antisemitism Advisory Group all for show,” said Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC). “Not only did the AAG find that antisemitism was a major issue on campus, it offered several recommendations on how to combat the problem — none of which were ever implemented with any real vigor. This shocking revelation reveals an inner look at how dysfunctional Harvard’s administration is and the deep-seated moral rot that clouds its judgement.”

Gay created the AAG following the Hamas terrorist attack against Israel on Oct. 7. The House began investigating Harvard several months later after the committee subpoenaed the school.

According to the House report, the AAG determined that anti-Semitic harassment was a significant problem on campus. Most of the group members threatened to resign over Gay’s inaction to what the discovered, the report stated.

Key recommendations from the AAG included: having “zero tolerance” for classroom disruptions; protecting shared learning environments; holding student organizations accountable for adhering to university rules; countering antisemitic speech; reviewing Harvard’s Office of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging’s (OEDIB) inadequacy in addressing antisemitism; and investigating the potential influence of “dark money” from Iran, Qatar, and associates of terrorist groups on campus.

The AAG also advised on ways to unmask protesters who were disrupting university operations. The group suggested addressing the prevalence of anti-Semitic protesters wearing masks to hide their identities during some of the more obscene incidents that happened on campus.

The end result under Gay’s administration was that the protesters ran rampant while the university essentially stood back and watched. This is not the higher education experience that should ever receive any taxpayer funded money in any capacity.

Key Takeaways:

• Congress investigated Harvard and found back-handed support of antisemitism on campus.
• A House report detailed how the school’s former president failed to act against protesters.
• Then-president Claudine Gay’s supposed antisemitism advisory board was “all for show.”
