MGH Institute of Health Professions sued for antisemitic discrimination
In May 2024, The Lawfare Project, together with co-counsel Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP, have filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts on behalf of a Jewish Israeli student at the MGH Institute of Health Professions (IHP) Health and Rehabilitation Sciences. The lawsuit alleges a sustained campaign of antisemitic hostility, discrimination, and retaliation within the school's top-ranked Doctor of Physical Therapy program, which escalated into a concerted effort to impede the student's academic progress and withhold his rightfully earned doctorate degree.
