Analysis Summary
In 1988, Harmeet Dhillon published antisemitic content in the Dartmouth Review—a column depicting the college's Jewish president James Freedman as Hitler and comparing the campus experience of conservative students to the Holocaust. The column used Holocaust language including 'Final Solution' and 'cattle cars,' and the Dartmouth student newspaper and Anti-Defamation League both condemned it. Dhillon later apologized but the incident became a central focus when she was appointed Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights in 2025, prompting scrutiny of her civil rights record.
