Harvard University failed to implement recommendations that it was presented with from an anti-Semitism group that it created following Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attack on Israel. The investigation from the House Education and the Workforce Committee started several months later when it subpoenaed the school. Harvard President Claudine Gay announced in late October that she had created the Antisemitism Advisory Group (AAG) to “combat antisemitism in our community.” However, even though she attended most of the meetings that the group held, very little was ever done to implement the group’s recommendations for how to make the campus safer. “The Committee’s report proves that former President Gay and Harvard’s leadership propped up the university’s Antisemitism Advisory Group all for show,” said Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC). “Not only did the AAG find that antisemitism was a major issue on campus, it offered several recommendations on how to combat the problem — none of which were ever implemented with any real vigor. This shocking revelation reveals an inner look at how dysfunctional Harvard’s administration is and the deep-seated moral rot that clouds its judgement.” The report said that the AAG found that anti-Semitic harassment was a significant problem on campus and that most of its members threatened to resign over Gay’s inaction on their findings. The following were among the recommendations that the group presented to the school: Having “zero tolerance” for classroom disruptions; Protecting shared learning environments; Holding student organizations accountable for adhering to University rules; Countering antisemitic speech; Reviewing the academic rigor of classes and programs with antisemitic content; Reviewing Harvard’s Office of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging’s (OEDIB) inadequacy in addressing antisemitism; and Increasing intellectual diversity; and Investigating the potential influence of “dark money” from Iran, Qatar, and associates of terrorist groups on campus. The group advised the school’s leadership that they also needed to address the prevalence of anti-Semitic protesters wearing masks to hide their identities during some of the more obscene incidents that happened on campus.

New Great American Media star Alexa PenaVega shared an update with fans about how she and her family were doing after she revealed in April that her daughter, Indy, was stillborn. In a touching video posted on Tuesday on Instagram, PenaVega broke down at times as she thanked followers for all their prayers after she and husband Carlos PenaVega, announced that their fourth child, a little girl, died during birth.  She captioned her post, “Love you all. Wanted to give everyone an update and thank you all for your kind words and encouraging prayers. They have meant so much to us.” “So I just want to say, first off that we’re doing well,” the former Hallmark Channel star said.  “We’re actually doing really well, considering everything.” “You know this season, obviously is the most traumatic thing that we’ve ever had to go through as a family, let alone I don’t think I’ve ever experienced anything quite like this. And I hope to never ever have to experience anything like this again,” she added. “But it’s been really incredible to see how God has just moved through our family during this time. We have obviously felt a lot of pain. A lot of pain. But also, an insane amount of peace.” Alexa PenaVega gives emotional update after daughter’s stillbirth, reveals her ‘health declined a lot’ https://t.co/ewH8MCZeF3 pic.twitter.com/Hha933NZOE — Page Six (@PageSix) May 16, 2024 “God has really met us in this place between pain and peace,” the actress continued. “It really doesn’t make any sense other than it is His supernatural peace, that is just covering us and allowing us to still go through grief and to still, you know, walk through this valley, but not alone. And not without purpose.” The new Great American Media’s Pure Flix star then revealed that after they lost their daughter, her own “health declined a lot. And nobody could figure out what was wrong.” “But I don’t think I’ve ever surrendered in this way to God in my life,” PenaVega said. “Like you think, ‘God, I’m gonna surrender. I’m gonna surrender. I’m gonna surrender.’ But until you get to this point, you don’t even realize the type of surrender that you’re capable of.”  “And let me tell you, Indy’s little life has transformed us,” she added. “Like, completely. Our family has never been stronger, my faith has never been stronger, my marriage has never been stronger.” She then began to get very emotional and broke down in tears as she talked about how their daughter’s “life was so purposeful in just that short little bit that we had with her. And while she may not have taken a breath here on earth, she did not go without purpose.” Alexa and Carlos have been together since 2012 — and married since 2014. They are also parents to two sons, Ocean and Kingston, as well as a daughter, Rio.

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) blocked a pro-Israel event from happening on Wednesday, according to the conservative student group hosting the event. The student group, UCLA’s Young America’s Foundation (YAF) chapter, accused the university of caving to pressure from “pro-Hamas campus radicals” who have engaged in “violent” protests and encampments for weeks. The event was slated to begin at 6 p.m. on Wednesday. The featured speaker was author and counter-Jihad expert Robert Spencer. However, before the event was scheduled to begin, the YAF team discovered that the doors to the event room were locked, they said. When they contacted university officials, they were informed that their event would need to be relocated to a low-traffic, remote location, the student group said. This was an “unacceptable last minute change that would have significantly impacted the event’s attendance and impact,” YAF said in a post about the incident. Administrators allegedly refused to open the locked doors, preventing the event from taking place. In the weeks prior, UCLA administrators also allegedly stalled the event’s approval process, according to the student group. Administrators told the group that if the pro-Palestinian encampment was still in place on the day of the event, it would be too dangerous for an event expressing opposing views to happen, the group said. The student group brought in legal counsel and contested that decision, arguing that it was an unconstitutional use of the heckler’s veto. At first, the university appeared to reconsider, but in the end, the event was stifled, the group said.

UCLA said it was “misinformation” that the event was canceled. “The event took place in the designated location after it shifted to a closed, recorded event as proposed by the organizer and agreed to by UCLA,” Mary Osako, vice chancellor of strategic communications at UCLA, said in a statement to The Daily Wire. YAF pushed back on the university’s characterization, saying the event never took place as planned. The YAF chapter was only briefly able to access the room to interview the speaker and have a small meet-and-greet with just the speaker and YAF chapter members, the organization said. YAF’s president, former Wisconsin governor Scott Walker, warned that YAF is prepared to take UCLA to court over the issue. “Conservative students should have the same rights as the pro-Hamas students who have routinely obstructed and violently disrupted the UCLA campus,” Walker said in a statement to The Daily Wire. “UCLA canceled YAF’s access to the lecture hall while allowing protestors to freely roam the campus. Like we did against UC, Berkeley, YAF will prevail against UCLA in court!” Walker said. The student chairman of UCLA’s YAF chapter, Matthew Weinberg, expressed disappointment at the university’s move. “I am deeply disappointed in UCLA’s failure to protect our First Amendment rights,” Weinberg said. “All we wanted was a successful Pro-Israel event where people of all backgrounds and viewpoints can engage in the free exchange of ideas and hear a different perspective not heard across university campuses, and the school made that impossible. This is nothing but an act of pure cowardice.” Spencer, the event’s speaker, had strong words for the school, accusing it of indoctrinating students with leftist ideology. “UCLA and other universities today are not institutions of higher learning; they are radioactive wastelands of hard-left indoctrination,” Spencer said.
