NYU trio sue for hate on campus

New York University has failed to tackle a sharp rise in antisemitism on campus following Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel, leaving some Jewish students feeling “under siege,” according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday.

The school has dealt with numerous instances of antisemitism over the past decade that have sharply risen since Hamas slaughtered 1,200 Israelis and the Jewish state began to retaliate on the Gaza Strip, three Jewish students said in their Manhattan federal suit.

Mobs of students have harassed and intimidated NYU’s Jewish population, which is regularly confronted with chants of “Hitler was right” and “Gas the Jews,” among other hateful phrases, and many students and faculty have “enthusiastically endorsed” Hamas’ deadly assault on the Jewish state, the suit claims.

When Jewish students plead for help from administrators, complaints are either “ignored, slow-walked, or met with gaslighting,” the suit alleges.

As a result, the students have been left “traumatized” and feel like they are treated as “second-class citizens” because of their Jewish identity and ancestry, the suit states.

“The effect of NYU’s inaction and, indeed, complicity in the torrent of anti-Jewish hatred that has engulfed its campus has been the normalization of antisemitism in the NYU community,” the suit states.

The plaintiffs want a court to force NYU to enact measures that will better combat antisemitism, including disciplining students and staff.

“The assertions in this suit do not accurately describe conditions on our campus or the many steps NYU has been taking to fight antisemitism,” NYU spokesperson John Beckman told The Post.
