J.J. Kimche WSJ, Oct. 10, 2023 “How can we share dormitories, classrooms and ideas with students who would makes excuses or even celebrate if we and our families were hacked to death by a Hamas terrorist tomorrow?” Hamas’s attack on Israel was a small-scale Holocaust, a moment no Jew alive with the tiniest speck […]

Marc Rowan The Free Press, Oct. 11, 2023 “At UPenn, the embrace of double standards and the unacceptable status quo, which privileges antisemitism, did not begin on President Magill’s and Chairman Bok’s watch, but they are the protectors of it.” While Hamas terrorists were slaughtering Israeli Jews, university administrators were figuring out how to […]

Tammi Rossman-Benjamin Sapir Journal, Volume Ten Summer 2023 “As a practical matter, DEI programs limit their “equity” and “inclusion” efforts to certain identity groups, which rarely include Jews.” For more than a decade, Jewish students on American campuses have been targets of abusive conduct because of their support, or perceived support, for Israel.

Seth Mandel Commentary Magazine, June 2023 “At George Washington University, anti-Semitic harassment is apparently now part of required course-work.” By every metric, American Jewish campus life is a shadow of what it once was.
