The agreement settled three civil rights complaints but involved nearly 400 reports of discrimination against Jewish students. In one instance, an anti-Israel protester identified where a Jewish student lived and called for him to be killed. In another, a swastika was drawn on a Jewish student's dorm room door.
The settlement comes in the wake of widespread anti-Semitism that has gripped Rutgers's campus since Hamas's Oct. 7, 2023, terror attack on Israel. For instance, in March, the face of a Jewish freshman was plastered on flyers for an anti-Israel referendum in the dormitory where the student lives. A member of one of Rutgers's advisory boards has regularly posted pro-Hamas content on his social media accounts, including several posts hailing attacks on Israeli troops as "hunting season."
Last month, two Rutgers faculty unions adopted an anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions resolution, with approximately 60 percent of the groups voting in favor. The resolution accused Israel of apartheid and ethnic cleansing and urged the university to divest its endowment from companies and organizations linked to the Israeli government. The measure furthermore called on Rutgers to terminate its partnership with Tel Aviv University and to "disallow any future collaboration on Israeli military or intelligence technology." Such a boycott, illegal in the state of New Jersey, was not mentioned in the settlement.Biden Ed Department Approves Another Toothless Anti-Semitism Settlement, This Time With Rutgers | Jessica Costescu | Free Beacon | January 2, 2025
I like how they use the term antisemitism to disguise the fact that it’s really racism.I would think that some in the Afro community would be more aware but they actively condone and foster it...
