During the one-semester course, Sheehi subjected Jewish students to anti-Semitic coursework and lectures, at times suggesting their failure to acquiesce would threaten their future as clinical psychologists. In September, she invited a radical speaker to campus who has falsely claimed that Israel tests its missile systems on Palestinian children.
The event occurred between the Jewish High Holy Days of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. The speaker, Dr. Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, used the occasion to denounce "white Israeli racism," accuse Israel of using global relief work "to camouflage" its "oppressive power," and call for violence against Jewish people. The visiting professor went on to praise a Palestinian teenager who attempted to stab two Israelis to death in 2015.
The Jewish students told Sheehi they felt targeted by the talk, questioning why they had been subjected to "a two-hour diatribe against one group—namely, Jews," the complaint says. They noted other regimes known for human rights abuses like China, Russia, and Iran would likely not have received similar treatment. One of those students posted in a group chat for the class that the speaker’s talk also had "little to do with being a stronger clinician." Another pointed out that there were no course readings on anti-Semitism for a class on "diversity awareness."
But Sheehi denied the students had experienced anti-Semitism and told them the speaker’s remarks were "in keeping with the class approach of ‘disrupting,’" according to the complaint. She then went further and condemned the student for having made "damaging Islamophobic anti-Palestinian" comments about the guest speaker. In another heated class debate that term, she tacitly approved of fellow students calling out what they termed their Jewish classmates' "white fragility."
Behind closed doors, Sheehi slandered the students to other faculty members, claiming they were racists who called the speaker a "terrorist" and used assignments as an excuse to get "combative" with her, the complaint states.
The Jewish students spoke with their department’s chair and an unnamed dean about Sheehi’s conduct. But neither took action against the professor. The dean informed the students their only recourse would be to withdraw from the course and take it again the following year. He also denied Sheehi had engaged in anti-Semitism.

[Shon Gableton]: “As the crowd roars and guns salute, the new Earl and Countess of Boykins emerge from West Simster Abbey all smiles! The royal couple will take their first carriage ride together, off into what we at SNN can only hope to be a newsworthy first year of marriage! See you next time, Windenburg!”
A spokeswoman for the school, Julia Metjian, told the Washington Free Beacon that the public will have to take George Washington University's word for it. "The confidential report has been carefully reviewed, and the summary of the findings the university released accurately represents what the university learned through the investigation conducted by Crowell & Moring," said the university. "In the interest of protecting the privacy of our students and faculty, the confidential report will not be released."
The school said that allegations about Sheehi's anti-Semitic statements were "largely inconsistent with the recording of the event or significantly decontextualized," but it did not say what context, if any, was missing.
The investigation was conducted by Crowell & Moring attorneys Laurel Pyke Malson and Sadina Montani, who have a background of representing universities and other employers against discrimination complaints, according to their online biographies. Malson says in her biography that her recent key representations include "Title IX litigation defending universities against claims brought by both complainants and respondents," while Montani's biography says she "represents employers in state and federal courts and before various administrative agencies, defending claims of race, sex, disability, and age discrimination."
StandWithUs is raising questions about some of the findings described by the university, including the assertion that none of the students interviewed by investigators remembered Sheehi being dismissive of anti-Semitism claims raised by Jewish students.
"This is patently untrue," Rothstein told the Free Beacon. She also rejected GWU's claim that Sheehi's anti-Israel Twitter posts were "only briefly visible to the public."
"In reality, [Sheehi's] Twitter feed, including her blatantly anti-Semitic rhetoric, was visible to the public for many years," Rothstein said. "It was only after StandWithUs filed its Title VI complaint that the virulently hostile and profane tweets were removed."
