House Republicans on Tuesday announced an investigation into the federal funding for universities where students have protested the Israel-Hamas war, broadening a campaign that has placed heavy scrutiny on how presidents at the nation’s most prestigious colleges have dealt with reports of antisemitism on campus.
Several House committees will be tasked with a wide probe that ultimately threatens to withhold federal research grants and other government support to the universities, placing another pressure point on campus administrators who are struggling to manage pro-Palestinian encampments, allegations of discrimination against Jewish students and questions of how they are integrating free speech and campus safety.
The House investigation follows several recent high-profile hearings that precipitated the resignations of presidents at Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania. And House Republicans promised more scrutiny, saying they were calling on the administrators of Yale, UCLA and the University of Michigan to testify next month.
众议院共和党人周二宣布对学生抗议以色列与哈马斯战争的大学联邦资助展开调查，扩大了对美国最负盛名的大学校长如何处理校园反犹报道的严格审查范围。 几个众议院委员会将负责进行广泛的调查，最终可能会扣留联邦研究拨款和其他政府对大学的支持，这给正在努力处理亲巴勒斯坦营地、歧视犹太学生的指控和如何将言论自由和校园安全结合起来等问题的校园管理人员带来了另一个压力。众议院调查将遵循最近举行了几场备受瞩目的听证会，上几次听证会导致哈佛大学和宾夕法尼亚大学校长辞职。众议院共和党人承诺进行更多审查，称他们正在呼吁耶鲁大学、加州大学洛杉矶分校和密歇根大学的管理人员下个月作证。
