A former Harvard graduate student who was roughed up during an anti-Israel protest has filed an antisemitism lawsuit against the university, accusing school officials of taking no action to punish his alleged attackers and even bestowing honors on two of them.
Yoav Segev, a recent graduate of Harvard Business School, said in his federal complaint that Harvard authorities failed to protect him or discipline anyone in the campus mob that descended on him at a pro-Palestinian demonstration on Oct. 18, 2023, on a campus quad outside Klarman Hall.
“This malicious, violent, and antisemitic conduct violated several University policies — such as its anti-discrimination and anti-bullying policies — and it prompted criminal charges against two of the student-employees who incited the attack,” said the complaint filed Thursday in federal court in Massachusetts. “Nonetheless, Harvard refused to take any reasonable action to punish the assailants or to redress the victim, Mr. Segev.”
