Rep. Jake Auchincloss expressed concern about Harvard University’s commitment to free speech, particularly in light of its low ranking in a survey of college free speech.
He criticized the university’s handling of cancel culture and its response to antisemitism, hoping for a renewed commitment to open discourse.
He also discussed the lack of historical education about the Jewish people and the impact of safe spaces on college campuses. (Trending: Dr. Fauci Says the Unthinkable About Going To Church)

Rep. Jake Auchincloss said he will not second-guess the board’s vote.
“They’ve made their decision, but now they own their decision,” said the lawmaker.
Rep. Auchincloss said Harvard needs “to embrace a true pluralistic, open discourse on Harvard’s campus” after ranking last out of 248 schools in the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression’s survey of college free speech rankings.
The UPenn ranked second to last.
UPenn President Elizabeth Magill resigned after testifying on antisemitism.
Rep. Archincloss said, “Harvard University has spent the last five years with cancel culture as the dominant norm on its campus, and now that antisemitism has flared up, it has decided to embrace free speech principles and it does ring hollow.”
