The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is demanding [University of Pennsylvania] turn over names and personal information about Jewish members of the Penn community as part of the administration's stated goal to combat antisemitism on campuses. But some Jewish faculty and staff have condemned the government's demand as "a visceral threat to the safety of those who would find themselves identified because compiling and turning over to the government lists of Jews' conjures a terrifying history", according to a press release put out by the groups' lawyers.

The EEOC subpoenaed UPenn on 18 November 2025, but I went back through and saw just this one Dkos diary. Here we are, then, with an update necessary because, according to The Guardian and numerous other sources, "the American Association of University Professors' national and Penn chapters, the university's Jewish Law Students Association and Association of Senior and Emeritus Faculty, and the American Academy of Jewish Research filed a motion in federal court to intervene in the case."
