The University of Pennsylvania asked a federal judge to deny the EEOC’s subpoena demanding detailed employee records, including lists of Jewish faculty and staff, arguing the request is unconstitutional and risks grave privacy and safety harms. Penn told the court it has already provided nearly 900 pages of material about complaints of antisemitism but will not produce rosters that would identify employees by religion or ancestry. The EEOC subpoena seeks names of employees who filed complaints and membership lists of university Jewish organizations as part of an investigation into whether Penn maintained a hostile work environment for Jewish employees. Penn’s filing framed the demand as overbroad and dangerous given historical government cataloguing of people by faith, and it has drawn support from faculty and other higher‑education groups.
