One report from Penn's University Task Force on Antisemitism created in the wake of the Oct. 7 attack on Israel calls for bolstering Jewish Studies, and mandatory education on unconscious bias.

Penn should do more to combat anti-Jewish bias on campus and reissue a statement opposing divestment from Israel, a university task force says

The task force disagreed on whether to call for regulating the participation of people unaffiliated with Penn in campus protests and prohibiting masking during protests “for the purpose of concealing one’s identity.” Of 33 people arrested during the encampment dismantling on May 10, nine were Penn students.

The Penn Faculty for Justice in Palestine group, which has joined student protesters to call for divestment, did not immediately return a call for comment.
