In the days since Hamas’ October 7 attack against Israel, Harvard has faced division on campus and national backlash over its response.
Tomorrow, Harvard President Claudine Gay will stand before Congress’s House Committee on Education and the Workforce. Lawmakers will press her on antisemitism at Harvard as top donors continue to fume over the University’s handling of tensions on campus. Some have threatened to pull their funding. Others already have. How will the House committee grill her, and how will she respond?
This week on Newstalk, reporters Miles J. Herszenhorn ’25, Emma H. Haidar ’26, and Cam E. Kettles ’26 join host Frank S. Zhou ’26 to break down what to expect at the hearing and how donors are reacting on public platforms and private calls.
