Federal Judge Orders University of Pennsylvania to Share Jewish Community Data

A federal judge has mandated that the University of Pennsylvania must comply with a subpoena from the Trump administration, requiring the release of information regarding Jewish faculty, students, and organizations. This ruling, issued by Judge Gerald Pappert, supports the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's (EEOC) authority to gather such data as part of a discrimination investigation. The decision raises concerns about privacy and the implications for the Jewish community at the university, emphasizing the ongoing tensions surrounding discrimination and civil rights in educational institutions.
