Lawrence Technological U. Finally Apologizes for Inaction After Student’s Antisemitic Abuser Pleads Guilty
“I am glad that most of the truth has come to light, but LTU’s campus was a hostile environment for me for more than a year after I reported Zavier’s harassment in my own campus apartment”
You just know there are other cases like this one at other schools around the country.
The Daily Wire reports:
University Apologizes For Inaction After Student’s Antisemitic Abuser Pleads Guilty
Nearly a full year since college soccer player Noam Nedivi came forward with his story of antisemitic abuse, his university is apologizing for not only its failure to protect the student, but also actions that derailed his college experience.
Lawrence Technological University actually kicked Nedivi off his team and declined to protect him from a roommate who subjected him to months of antisemitic verbal and physical abuse. The Michigan school has now formally apologized after his former roommate and teammate, Zavier Chimienti, pleaded guilty to ethnic intimidation and misdemeanor domestic violence in October.
The ordeal, first reported by The Daily Wire nearly a year ago, included Chimienti harassing Nedivi with anti-Jewish slurs, Nazi salutes, and full-on physical abuse.
“Last year, a Jewish student reported verbal and physical antisemitic abuse committed by another student on campus,” LTU’s administration wrote in a press release. “The student’s complaint should have been handled better. In that way, we failed him and the LTU community, and caused unnecessary pain to our student. We apologize to our student for the hurt caused him [sic].”
Nedivi told The Daily Wire that he is relieved the situation has come to an end, but he’s far from satisfied.
“I am glad that most of the truth has come to light, but LTU’s campus was a hostile environment for me for more than a year after I reported Zavier’s harassment in my own campus apartment,” Nedivi said. “He was never suspended at any point, even after he pleaded guilty in state court.”
Nedivi added that the lack of prioritization of his safety made him decide to finish his degree online. “LTU acted more like a criminal organization than a university trying to protect me,” Nedivi added. “LTU’s administration deliberately falsified evidence, made up lies to ruin my reputation and kept me from accessing critical student resources.”

when the government backs the terrrorists as the obamafjb admin does
everyone else falls/fell in line
not to mention many of them hate the j 0ws anyway
so the college admin failed to protect student(s)???
that has to lead to criminal and/or civil charges against the pro terrorist admin
take action against them civil courts at the least
baseball bat to the knees would have solved the problem.
Easy for me to say that when it’s not my freedom and future at risk.
Your absolutely correct; however, at some point it will become necessary to do more than passively expect the system to do something, I’m thinking we’re beyond that point as these people have no fear at all because the system rather than punishing them, protects them.
The other 2 roommates who witnessed this long term harassment and did nothing should be expelled if for nothing else being crappy human beings.
An apology in March, following a guilty plea in October, is no apology.
I read a long breakdown of the harassment and refusal by the university to do anything about it. It almost reads like a farce with the offender at one point running into the room the Jewish student was in, farting and yelling “I gassed the Jew” and then running out. Most troubling, even more than the actions by the student and the university is the action of the victim. He is hard to understand. Even as this was going on he still agreed to spend Thanksgiving at the guys house with a family that clearly hated him. Why in the hell would he do that?
This seems similar to abused people who won’t leave their abuser or even support legal attempts to punish them.
