Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) Questions University Presidents on Antisemitism
Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) on Tuesday pressed the presidents of the University of Pennsylvania, Harvard and MIT about rising antisemitism on college campuses and whether that speech violates their schools' codes of conduct, creating an exchange that has led to severe blowback on the presidents.
"Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Penn's rules or code of conduct?" Rep. Stefanik asked.
"It is a context-dependent decision," replied UPenn's Elizabeth Magill. "If the speech becomes conduct, it can be harassment."
"'Conduct' meaning committing the act of genocide?" an incredulous Rep. Stefanik asked. "The speech is not harassment? This is unacceptable."
The New York Republican asked each of the university presidents the same series of questions.
"Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard's rules on bullying and harassment?" she asked Harvard's Claudine Gay.
"It can be, depending on the context," Ms. Gay responded.
"What's the context?" Rep. Stefanik followed up.
"Targeted at an individual," the Harvard president said.
"It's targeted at Jewish students, Jewish individuals," Rep. Stefanik shot back. "Do you understand your testimony is dehumanizing them? Do you understand that dehumanization is part of antisemitism?"
