Under the Obama administration, federal regulations prompted universities to establish new bureaucracies aimed at addressing sexual misconduct on campuses. These measures were intended to create safer environments for students and ensure complaints were handled effectively.
In a continuation of this approach, the Trump administration is now intensifying efforts to address claims of antisemitism within educational institutions. This strategy reflects a commitment to combat discrimination and promote a more inclusive atmosphere for all students.
Both administrations have focused on strengthening the response mechanisms within universities, although the specific areas of concern have shifted from sexual misconduct to antisemitism in the current context.
