Judge Orders University of Pennsylvania to Provide Employee Records in Antisemitism Investigation

  • Judge Gerald Pappert ordered the University of Pennsylvania to comply with an EEOC investigation, requiring records about Jewish employees but exempting specific group affiliations.
  • The university plans to appeal the ruling, citing privacy and First Amendment concerns, and insists it does not maintain employee lists by religion.
  • The EEOC's investigation follows multiple antisemitic incidents on campus, including vandalism and hate speech, and aims to identify potential victims of discrimination.
