Avi Benlolo and Jerry Grafstein National Post, July 5, 2024 “Given that Jews face a disproportionate amount of hate, the way this judgment dismissed claims of antisemitism is highly concerning.” Despite being among its biggest supporters, the Jewish community often finds itself on the losing side when it comes to the University of Toronto.

Karen Glaser The JC, Mar. 2, 2023 “From the get-go I felt it was my duty to explain the context and provide the content they didn’t have.” Natasha Hausdorff’s debut radio broadcast was during the Israel-Gaza conflict in 2014. She’d been invited onto Nick Ferrari’s breakfast show on LBC to debate Israel’s military operation codenamed […]
Melanie Phillips Substack, June 19, 2024 “And as also usually happens at such events, these two anti-Zionists promulgated distortions, falsehoods and blood libels to demonise Israel and its supporters.” Two days ago, a gripping debate took place in Toronto.

Douglas Belkin WSJ, May 16, 2024 “The report paints a picture of an overwhelmed and indecisive administration, which failed to apply university rules to protesters engaged in antisemitic behavior.” Harvard University was slow to react to a wave of hostility against Jewish students last fall and ignored recommendations from an advisory group it created to address rising […]
Jessica McCann, The Harvard Gazette, May 28, 2024 “… we now live in a world of extreme political polarization. And that means both that people tend to react to University statements (again, intact or distorted) in a polarized way, and also put pressure on the University to speak or not speak in polarized ways.” In […]
Gil Hoffman Jerusalem Post, June 2, 2024 “Steven Thrasher, whose title at Medill is “chair of social justice in reporting,” shockingly told students at the encampment that “our work is not about objectivity.” When I graduated from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism a quarter century ago, the dean and professors made me feel proud to be […]
