Barnard College has reached a settlement in a lawsuit filed by Jewish students alleging pervasive antisemitism and violations of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. As part of the agreement, Barnard will appoint a Title VI coordinator with authority similar to the Title IX coordinator and follow Office for Civil Rights guidance to consider the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism. The college will also implement measures including banning masks at protests, enforcing protest restrictions, refusing to meet or engage with the pro-Palestinian student group CUAD and its offshoots, and prohibiting the use of its endowment funds to target Israel. The settlement aims to address allegations that Barnard failed to adequately combat antisemitism on campus. Separately, Columbia University, Barnard’s sister institution, is reportedly nearing a $200 million settlement with the Trump administration over allegations of civil rights violations related to antisemitism and racial discrimination, with commitments to increase transparency in hiring and admissions processes.
