In March 2024, the [[Jewish Telegraphic Agency]] revealed that AJU had hired law firm [[Cozen O'Connor]] to investigate complaints of gender-based misconduct at the Ziegler School. The complaints, made over the previous two decades by former rabbinical students, allege a pattern of male favoritism and disrespectful treatment by dean Rabbi Bradley Shavit Artson and deputy dean Rabbi Cheryl Peretz, who were notified of the investigation by a Cozen O'Connor attorney. Artson and Peretz are also the subject of a probe by the [[Rabbinical Assembly]] over a similar set of allegations.
