NEW YORK, Nov 14 (Reuters) - New York University (NYU) was sued on Tuesday by three Jewish students who accused the school of creating a hostile environment in which Jewish students are subjected to pervasive antisemitic hatred, discrimination, harassment and intimidation. They also said Jewish students' complaints are "ignored, slow-walked, or met with gaslighting" by NYU administrators including Linda Mills, who became president in July. According to the complaint, Mills this month dismissed a petition from 4,000 NYU members expressing concern about antisemitism, saying the problem had been blown "out of proportion" and chiding Jewish students as "alarmist." "NYU's deliberate indifference toward the plight of its Jewish students under siege by egregious antisemitism has been outrageous," Marc Kasowitz, a lawyer for the plaintiffs, said in a statement. The case is Ingber et al v New York University, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No.

Ten years ago, when the former New York City police commissioner, Ray Kelly, was invited to speak at Brown University, students objected. The current campus protests reflect the limits of the more bonded relationship that students and universities have forged.
