The Education Department said Monday that the Trump administration is initiating fresh inquiries into claims of antisemitism at five American campuses, including Portland State University, Columbia University, and the University of California, Berkeley.
In contrast to the Biden administration, which resolved a number of cases with colleges in its final weeks, President Donald Trump has pledged to take a more aggressive stand against campus antisemitism and impose harsher punishments. The Justice Department launched a new task force to combat antisemitism on college campuses on the same day.
