A federal judge ordered the University of Pennsylvania to turn over contact information for employees identified as Jewish to the EEOC in a federal discrimination probe, calling the original request “ineptly worded” but finding the narrowed subpoena has an “understandable purpose” and must be complied with by May 1, 2026. The ruling bars disclosure of employees’ affiliations with specific Jewish organizations, but Penn says it will appeal on privacy and First Amendment grounds, and the decision comes amid a broader Trump‑administration push on antisemitism investigations, including DOJ action against Harvard and numerous Education Department probes.
