Universities warned about failure to protect Jewish students

 Daily Caller:

The Department of Education sent letters to 60 universities Monday warning of consequences for failing to protect Jewish students on campus.

The letters were sent to universities currently under investigation for antisemitic events and possible Title VI violations, including Yale, Harvard and the University of Michigan, according to the department’s press release.

“The Department is deeply disappointed that Jewish students studying on elite U.S. campuses continue to fear for their safety amid the relentless antisemitic eruptions that have severely disrupted campus life for more than a year. University leaders must do better,” Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said in the announcement. “U.S. colleges and universities benefit from enormous public investments funded by U.S. taxpayers. That support is a privilege and it is contingent on scrupulous adherence to federal antidiscrimination laws.”

Several universities have been accused of egregious civil rights violations for allowing pro-Palestinian activists to continuously harass Jewish students since the start of the Israel-Gaza War. Protesters assembled at countless universities across the country in support of Hamas, pitching illegal multi-week encampments, disrupting university functions and harassing Jewish students.

The Trump administration has already pulled hundreds of millions of dollars from Columbia University over its noncompliance with civil rights laws, allowing fiery protests to occur across campus for over a year. Protests at Columbia resulted in hundreds of arrests after demonstrators overtook a campus building and maintained illegal encampments.

Hamas is a genocidal organization that favors the extinction of the Jewish race.  Hamas should be treated like the Nazis they emulate.  I have never understood what is behind the Jew-hatred.  I have had Jewish friends from childhood to this day.  I still recall some Jewish friends I had while attending the University of Texas.  In high school in San Benito, Texas one of my favorite teachers was a Jewish woman.  Her husband was a wealthy banker in town.

I can only recall one Palestinian I came in contact with while in college.  He seemed to be struggling to make it through school.
