Drexel University to review and improve antisemitism complaint handling after a US Department of Education probe found inadequate response to 35 incidents over 1.5 years.

Drexel University will review and improve its handling of discrimination complaints, particularly those related to antisemitism, after a US Department of Education probe found it failed to properly respond to 35 reported incidents of harassment over Jewish ancestry. The Department of Education concluded that a hostile environment had existed at Drexel for about 1.5 years. The university will review complaints from the past two academic years, share the information with the federal agency, and revise policies to guide how discrimination incidents are investigated and addressed.
