UC Berkeley Settles Antisemitism Complaint, Hires Civil Rights Coordinator

UC Berkeley settles antisemitism complaint, apologizes to professor; Pomona College plans measures to combat bias. Two California colleges have recently resolved complaints about antisemitism, following pro-Palestinian campus protests. UC Berkeley will pay $60,000 to Israeli professor Yael Nativ, who was not rehired despite her popular class. The university apologized and invited her back, after a campus investigation found discrimination. Meanwhile, Pomona College plans to hire a civil rights coordinator and form a task force to address Jewish life and antisemitism, following a federal complaint about protests creating a hostile environment for Jewish students.
