"UPenn's $100M Donation Lost Amidst Antisemitism Testimony Fallout"

A major donor has withdrawn a $100 million grant from the University of Pennsylvania after its president, Elizabeth Magill, and other university leaders avoided answering questions about how they would punish students calling for the genocide of Jews during a congressional hearing. The donor, Ross Stevens, stated that he was "appalled" by their stance and cited the university's "permissive approach" towards such calls for violence as grounds for rescinding the donation. Magill has faced mounting calls to resign and has apologized for her response, but the chair of Penn's Board of Trustees is reportedly considering her resignation. The House Committee on Education & the Workforce has announced a formal investigation into Harvard, UPenn, and MIT over "rampant antisemitism."
