After Anti-Semitic Incident, Delayed Response by Harvard to Jewish Students
Free Beacon ^ | 5/3/16 | Adam Kredo

Posted on 05/03/2016 5:18:33 PM PDT by Nachum

A group of Jewish students at Harvard received a response this afternoon to a meeting request sent to school President Drew Faust last Wednesday – only two hours after the Washington Free Beacon inquired with Faust’s office for a story about the delay in responding to the meeting request.

The students first asked Faust for a meeting on April 27th, the week after an anti-Semitism scandal at Harvard received national media attention. The students sought the meeting to raise their concerns about Harvard administration policies that they believe have supported and legitimized the growth of extremist anti-Israel events, groups, and programs on campus.

After failing to receive a response to the meeting request, the students called President Faust’s office on Monday.

They were told the request had been received and it would take one to two weeks to receive an answer on whether a meeting would be granted, according to a source who spoke to the Free Beacon about the situation.

The response would have pushed the date for a possible meeting past the end of the school year on May 14th, by which time most students have departed campus.

there’s lots of antiSemitism on California public college campuses/campii too
especially UC Bezerkeley, UCLA, UCI, UCSC, UCD, and SFSU

this has been festering for years
and
unfortunately, Governor Jerry Brown (who’s instincts are good, I still believe).. has done little to clean it out.

very very sad for a once-great state to be hosting so many IslamoNazis and just plain regular Nazis in its public square

Maybe they will quote FDR, a god of liberals. "Those wailing Jews...."

[[ verbal attack last month by Harvard BDS leader Husam El-Coolaq on a visiting Israeli official. “Harvard has become a fertile environment for anti-Israel activism through its constant hosting of speakers and events, and support for student clubs and programs, whose major purpose is the demonization of the Jewish state.”]]

These islamic clubs are the real hate groups in America.
All this stuff goes right back to the fakestinians

When the leftists take over a state so completely as in California the socialists come out in large numbers. And that includes quite a few of the national type.

Don’t know about every year, but ten years ago, a gift of $20 million was used to initiate the Islamic Studies program at Harvard that bears his name.

Harvard’s skewed admission agenda (like the fight in California against Prop 209) should be a ripe and juicy campaign issue.
