University of Pennsylvania President Liz Magill backtracked from comments she
made during a congressional hearing addressing antisemitism on college campuses
after facing an outpouring of criticism over her remarks.

Lawmakers questioned Magill and the presidents of Harvard University and the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Tuesday about their responses to
protests against the Israel-Hamas war, sometimes featuring antisemitic rhetoric,
that have led to rising tensions on their campuses. During one exchange, the
presidents were asked if calling for the genocide of Jewish students would
violate the policies of the schools. Magill said it depended on the context.
