(The Center Square) – Congress’ probe into rising antisemitism on college campuses includes letters to the leaders of 10 prominent universities, with signatures led by a North Carolina congresswoman and leaders of five other key committees.

Citing confirmed legislative and oversight jurisdiction from the U.S. Supreme Court, six committees in the U.S. House of Representatives tell each institution it is seeking to “restore a safe learning environment” for students and “properly steward the taxpayer funds placed in your care.” Barnard, Columbia, Cal Berkeley, UCLA, Harvard, MIT, Northwestern, Penn, Rutgers and Cornell received letters signed by U.S. Reps. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., Jason Smith, R-Mo., Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, James Comer, R-Ky., and Frank Lucas, R-Okla.
