The Trump administration accused George Washington University of violating federal civil rights law by being deliberately indifferent to antisemitic protests targeting Jewish, American-Israeli, and Israeli students and faculty. The Department of Justice found the university's response inadequate to the hostile environment created during April and May 2024 pro-Palestinian demonstrations. The DOJ is offering a voluntary resolution agreement but will pursue enforcement if the university doesn't cooperate by August 22. This action follows other university investigations regarding pro-Palestinian protests.
