Who believes higher education has an Islamophobia problem right now? Jewish students are the ones constantly under attack.

Dept of Ed launches federal investigation into both anti-Semtism and Islamophobia on campus
The U.S. Department of Education has initiated investigations into five universities for reported incidents of anti-Semitism and two for reported incidents of Islamophobia. This scrutiny is part of a broader national inquiry, probing whether these institutions have failed to uphold a non-discriminatory educational environment as mandated by Title 6 of the Civil Rights Act.
The investigation announced Thursday currently includes Lafayette College, Cornell University, Columbia University, Wellesley College, University of Pennsylvania, and The Cooper Union
Notable incidents that have sparked this federal inquiry include the locking of Jewish students in a library at Cooper Union during a pro-Palestinian demonstration, and Columbia University’s suspension of two student groups after an unauthorized event that included “threatening rhetoric and intimidation” against Jews.

When a problem like antisemitism gets too embarrassingly rampant for a sympathetic government to continue to ignore, they address it with “both-sidesism.”
What?? No Harvard?
The concentration will be on islamophobia.
