Federal Probe Targets Middlebury for Alleged Antisemitism; Trump Warns of Campus Crackdown

Federal Probe Targets Middlebury for Alleged Antisemitism; Trump Warns of Campus Crackdown

3/12/2025




 The federal government is investigating Middlebury College over alleged antisemitism. Middlebury is one of 60 colleges and universities that got a letter from the Department of Education’s civil rights office. The letter says the colleges could face consequences if they don’t protect Jewish students on campus. It says students at those colleges faced antisemitic harassment and discrimination. It did not go into detail about what behavior on campus at Middlebury led to the letter, only saying that the letters were in response to complaints received. In a statement Tuesday, Middlebury College officials said they have been fully cooperating with the investigation. Saying, “We are committed to our educational mission, and that includes supporting all students with no tolerance for discriminatory behavior on our campus.” President Donald Trump warned Monday that the arrest and possible deportation of a Palestinian activist who helped lead protests at Columbia University will be the first “of many to come” as his administration cracks down on campus demonstrations against Israel and the war in Gaza.
