U.S. District Judge Richard G. Stearns has dismissed a civil rights lawsuit filed by the Trump administration against Harvard University. The legal action had accused the institution of failing to address antisemitism on its campus, specifically alleging violations of Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
In his ruling, Judge Stearns determined that the administration failed to demonstrate an ongoing violation of federal civil rights laws. The court concluded that the specific incidents cited in the lawsuit did not meet the legal threshold required to sustain the claims against the university.
