Two reports by Harvard University task forces found that students and staff have faced anti-Muslim bias as well as anti-Israeli or anti-Semitic bias.

The release of the reports on Tuesday follows the establishment last year of separate task forces on combating “Anti-Muslim, Anti-Arab, and Anti-Palestinian Bias” as well as “Antisemitism and Anti-Israeli Bias” amid campus protests over Israel’s war on Gaza.
