To the Editor:
A college education is meant to stimulate one’s thinking in a safe environment. Most parents are not aware, it is not the case, in many schools. College campuses across the country have become hotbeds for anti-Israel activism like never before. Anti-Semitism is on the rise in the USA in the form of hate speech, harassment and intimidation by the student body and instructors alike. A nationwide survey conducted by Trinity College and the Louis D. Brandeis Center found that Jewish students are being targeted on the basis of their religion. They’re being targeted by Islamic extremists and far-right neo-Nazis on campuses. The David Horowitz Freedom Center, compiled a list of the top 10 universities with the worst anti-Semitic activity. Columbia University is number one and Cornell University is second The list was created to “expose” anti-Semitic student groups like the Muslim Student Association who are associated with terrorist organizations such as Muslim Brotherhood.
