The Israel-Hamas conflict is shining a spotlight on accusations of antisemitism against multiple major U.S. colleges.
Donors and board members at Ivy league members including the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard have decried what they call antisemitic responses from the schools to Hamas’s attack on Israel — and the way the institutions have been treating Israeli students even before the conflict began.
"NYU Law Students Say Classmate Losing Job Offer Over Pro-Hamas Statement Is 'Violence'
Ryna Workman said 'Israel bears full responsibility' for Hamas attacks that have killed thousands.
The Chicago-based Winston & Strawn withdrew its offer of employment to Ryna Workman after the nonbinary NYU student issued a statement claiming "Israel bears full responsibility" for the terrorist attacks that have left more than 1,300 dead, including at least 30 Americans. The firm’s decision is just one instance of "systemic, concentrated violence" Workman has experienced since issuing her anti-Israel pronouncement, according to a letter of support obtained by the Washington Free Beacon

It’s amazing that after the horrors in Israel they still do the “words are violence” thing.

The tide starting to turn wrt major donors to “Ivy League” schools.
How fast will these school’s trustees dump the leadership when the $$ dries up?
My advice: if you go to college, go to get a degree in the physical sciences, engineering or CS: a degree that teaches you to think from first principles. Best thing is that you can get this degree anywhere. Turns out the laws of physics don’t change if you go to Ohio St vs Harvard.
Otherwise, be mindful of the crippling debt and closed mindedness - you may escape one but unlikely both.

given the size of their endowments, is it too little too late? with interest rates where they are, Harvard, as an example, can easily reap $2bil per year tax free without breaking a sweat
