What this bill does

  • Federally funded colleges found to have significant anti-Semitism problems are affected and must comply with monitoring agreements.
  • Colleges must pay for monitors' reasonable expenses; monitors file quarterly public reports and annual reports to Congress and schools.

  2. 02

    What accountability mechanisms should exist if appointed monitors' findings conflict with a college's own investigation conclusions?

  3. 03

    How might the costs of required monitoring affect colleges' budgets and potentially shift resources away from other campus safety initiatives?
