The City University of New York (CUNY) and the University of Michigan have failed to meet federal standards in addressing recent antisemitic and anti-Palestinian incidents on their campuses, but they have pledged to take corrective measures, the US Education Department said, Anadolu Agency reports.

Following investigations, the department’s Office for Civil Rights found that both universities were out of compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Title VI “prohibits race, color, or national origin discrimination, including harassment based on a person’s shared ancestry or ethnic characteristics,” said the department.

The office reviewed 75 reports of shared ancestry harassment and discrimination against the University of Michigan ranging from the 2022-23 school year to this February.
