The US Department of Justice has opened an investigation into the University of Washington's handling of antisemitism. The probe was initiated in response to events planned by Students United For Palestinian Equality and Return at University of Washington (SUPER UW), a group not affiliated with the university. SUPER UW's registration was revoked in May 2025 after protesters occupied the Interdisciplinary Engineering Building, causing damage. The group's recent event aimed to raise funds for mutual aid for Lebanon. The University of Washington will cooperate with the review, stating its strong opposition to antisemitism. The Justice Department did not provide specific examples of antisemitism on campus.
