Canaries in a Coal Mine: Pervasive antisemitism present in US college classrooms, curricula, faculty, ADL finds
[Jpost] Antisemitism on US university campuses has increasingly moved beyond public protests and encampments to take root directly inside classrooms, curricula, and faculty networks, the Anti-Defamation League said in a report released Wednesday.

The ADL also announced the launch of a Campus Classroom Reporting mechanism, a confidential channel designed for students, staff, and faculty to report and seek support regarding classroom-based bias.

The report, titled "Antisemitism Among Faculty and in the Classroom: Trends, Patterns and Institutional Dynamics," said to have identified recurring patterns such as pro-terrorism narratives introduced into coursework, extra credit offered for attending anti-Israel rallies, and faculty singling out Jewish and Israeli students in class.

4 Regardless ... in the end, whether you live or die ... normal people do not hand large sums of $$$$$ over to those who hate/ostracize/dehumanize them.

6 ADL focused on other things for many years.

By about 2005 or so, then CEO Abe Foxman was getting slow and frequently disfunctional.

Jonathan Greenblatt, took over as CEO in 2015. He was a former Clinton worker bee and then an Obama appointee before that and in his first few years basically had ADL carry out Obama favored programs. He basically continued the leftist stuff (pro immigration, anti gun rights, pro welfare, pro trans, anti voting integrity) all the way through Trump's first adman and of course all the way through Biden's admin. He was heavily involved in Biden's "all Govt push to combat antisemitism" in early 2023 (one of the most unsuccessful efforts of all time).

7 ^If an 18-yr-old is bright enough to be admitted to, eg, Cornell ... then that 18-yr-old is unquestionably bright enough to succeed quite nicely without ever going near the antisemites tolerated on and off campus in Ithaca, NY.

Sjheesh! Do otherwise-intelligent people really fail to understand this?

Are we living through another chapter of EXTRAORDINARY POPULAR DELUSIONS AND THE MADNESS OF CROWDS?

13 No worries, Paco Paco. The Jewish kids and their parents are increasingly taking their unwanted selves to where they are appreciated. From last September:

Jewish Enrollment Plummets at Ivy League Schools Amid Antisemitism Fears

But in every group there are some who move elsewhere and some who stand and fight for their right not to be locked out because of prejudice, the same right Jews and other groups fought so hard for a century ago, one of the rights that civil rights laws were passed at the federal and state level to ensure.

Don Vito Speaking for Boskone1523, according to half a century of psychological studies, the difference between expressing anti-Zionism and flaming antisemitism is precisely six months. Just so you understand that you aren’t fooling anyone about what kind of a hateful little idiot you are.

14 From AoS today:
"In Hamtramck, the first Muslim-majority city in America, an all-Muslim council just legalized backyard animal sacrifice.

The non-Muslim minority showed up to object.⁰
They were outvoted.

This is not �diversity.�⁰
The new majority rewrites the rules to reflect its own sacred� pic.twitter.com/hbD9vnuJAc
