The House Education and Workforce Committee on May 7 pressed the presidents of Haverford College, California Polytechnic State University, and DePaul University on their responses to anti-Semitism on their campuses.

During the hearing, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) asked Haverford College President Wendy Raymond what, if any, disciplinary action was taken against a student group that allegedly called for the “complete dismantling of the apartheid settler colonial state of Israel by all means necessary.”
