Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
The CAMPUS Act would prohibit colleges and universities from receiving federal funds if they engage in or support antisemitic activity. The bill defines prohibited antisemitic activity as either providing financial or other support to organizations that engage in antisemitic harassment, or allowing faculty members to promote antisemitism in their teaching. The Secretary of Education would enforce these rules by investigating complaints, notifying institutions of violations, and giving them 30 days to stop the activity and discipline responsible staff members before losing federal funding. If an institution fails to comply within the 30-day period, it would become ineligible for all federal education funds under Title IV of the Higher Education Act, which includes student financial aid programs. The bill would affect all colleges and universities that receive federal funding and rely on programs like student loans and grants.
