This includes, the complaint says, a sexual assault survivor support group called UVM Empowering Survivors, which rose to prominence itself when students felt the school was not responding to sexual assault in a satisfactory fashion. In May 2021, the group, which at the time of the complaint had more than 4,000 followers – more than a third of the total students at the school – said that Zionist students were not welcome and would be"blocked.

Months later, in September 2021, students targeted the campus Hillel building, throwing rocks at windows in a part of the building where students lived. When one resident told them to stop, one allegedly asked them,"Are you Jewish?" "Threatening to reduce the grades of any student due to their religion, race, national or ethnic origin, is a violation of UVM's anti-discrimination policy and the state and federal laws upon which that policy is based," the complaint states. The complaint says the TA also allegedly"repeatedly encourages her followers to cyber bully Jewish students for whom Zionism is integral to their Jewish identity.
