Hedge fund manager Bill Ackman has criticized alleged anti-Semitic incidents at Harvard University in an open letter, saying its diversity policies have contributed to the problem.

“For the past four weeks since the horrors of October 7th, I have been in dialogue with members of the corporation board, other alumni, as well as students and faculty sharing and comparing our concerns about the growing number of anti-Semitic incidents on campus, as we wait for you and the University to act,” Mr. Ackman wrote in the Nov. 4 letter to Harvard President Claudine Gay.
