Kasowitz Benson Torres filed a lawsuit Wednesday against Harvard College on behalf of six Jewish students who allege the university failed to protect them from antisemitism on campus, a violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

The plaintiffs, five unnamed law students and Alexander Kestenbaum, a theological studies graduate student, claimed Harvard enabled antisemitism on campus in the wake of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel by failing to enforce policies against discrimination, bullying, free speech guidelines and others.
