In a recent series of communications, the U.S. government has reached out to numerous employees at Barnard College and Columbia University, inquiring about their Jewish identity. These texts are reportedly part of a broader investigation into antisemitic harassment on campus, prompted by rising concerns regarding discrimination. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is conducting this investigation, and employees have been asked to complete a survey as part of Title VII compliance. This unusual approach has raised alarm among staff at Barnard College, prompting discussions about privacy and the implications of such inquiries.
