Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the Ivy League always anti-Semitic?

If so, wouldn't this be the reemergence of anti-Semitism, not its emergence?

The University of Chicago is not an Ivy League school, although it is nearly as prestigious and far more academically rigorous than an Ivy.

There was never any tradition of anti-Semitism at the University of Chicago - Jews were admitted to the University upon its founding without any quotas and it had notable Jewish graduates and faculty members within a decade or so of its founding.

One can make that argument about Harvard - but Chicago is a different matter entirely.
