The U. S. House of Representatives has asked the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA ) to send files about the faculty’s response to racism on school, after a recent aggressive pro- Arab “encampment”.
Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC), head of the House Education and Workforce Committee, has been leading investigations into a number of universities in the midst of extreme protests on college, many of which have included extreme anti-Israel and racist language, as well as reports of abuse against Israeli students and faculty since the October 7 evil attack.
Foxx has turned her attention to UCLA, where a pro-Palestinian “encampment” prevented Jewish students from entering college open spaces and was sometimes able to attend courses. The “encampment” even assaulted , editors. It was only after the mélée that the academy, position, and local government called in law enforcement after a group of about 100 pro-Israel police attacked the walls around the “encampment.”
