Linda McMahon sent a warning letter to 60 schools this week about possible enforcement actions regarding antisemitism on campus. Only half of the schools in the top 20 USNWR rankings made the list. Missing were:
MIT Dartmouth Duke Penn Caltech Chicago UCLA Rice Notre Dame Vanderbilt To me, some of the schools listed above surprised me, namely MIT and UCLA as I recall reading about some very intense pro Palestine protests on campus where Jewish students felt unsafe. Did they already clean up their acts? Here's the complete list of the 60 schools. https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/us-department-of-educations-office-civil-rights-sends-letters-60-universities-under-investigation-antisemitic-discrimination-and-harassment American University Arizona State University Boston University Brown University California State University, Sacramento Chapman University Columbia University Cornell University Drexel University Eastern Washington University Emerson College George Mason University Harvard University Illinois Wesleyan University Indiana University, Bloomington Johns Hopkins University Lafayette College Lehigh University Middlebury College Muhlenberg College Northwestern University Ohio State University Pacific Lutheran University Pomona College Portland State University Princeton University Rutgers University Rutgers University-Newark Santa Monica College Sarah Lawrence College Stanford University State University of New York Binghamton State University of New York Rockland State University of New York, Purchase Swarthmore College Temple University The New School Tufts University Tulane University Union College University of California Davis University of California San Diego University of California Santa Barbara University of California, Berkeley University of Cincinnati University of Hawaii at Manoa University of Massachusetts Amherst University of Michigan University of Minnesota, Twin Cities University of North Carolina University of South Florida University of Southern California University of Tampa University of Tennessee University of Virginia University of Washington-Seattle University of Wisconsin, Madison Wellesley College Whitman College Yale University |

No way, this is definitely a college topic. And sorry but your orange man and Astro boy have managed to make every possible other topic political 🤷🏻♀️ |

| Penn has had far more incidents of antisemitism than many schools on the list. But I guess since orange man went there, it’s okay. |

The list does seem random. My kid is at AU, and feels they've done a good job keeping a tight lid on protests (small and not disruptive). Admin was very clear they would not make concesssions to the protestors, eg divestment.
There have been a number of antisemitic incidents, but they were condemned in no uncertain terms and disciplinary action promised. https://www.american.edu/president/announcements/october-20-2023.cfm Here is the ADL report card. Not perfect, but surprised they were seen to rise to the level of the "list." https://www.adl.org/campus-antisemitism-report-card/american-university |

I think it's because they were tied to policies under the former president, who resigned. Not sure what campus climate is like now. |

no. other colleges had people resign, even presidents. this list is typical for this admin: a list was made, was shown around a table and everyone took their favorite school off for no real reason other than alumni status or they like the football team or whatever. totally random and subjective and whatever the fat white guys thought in the moment. the conversations went like this: "take notre dame off, my son is there." "done. anyone else?" "can I add a school? I heard about this one thing on Joe Rogan and it's just a woke bs" "of course. add, remove, whatever you want" |

Exactly. Politically motivated plus personal bias and revenge. Thank you, Joe McCarthy. |

Actually Notre Dame didn’t have any significant protests and administration was very proactive with any attempts of encampments. |

If that’s the case, how come Ohio State (Vance’s alma mater) is on the list? |

well, it was an example. and also the have had some protests and get a C from the ADL, same as American. I think you're mistaken if you think the other schools on this list were full of disruptive protests. Arizona State? SUNY Purchase? Dumb. |

Because Vance believes no one did anything for him, ever. He's totally a self-made man in his mind. And that extends to Ohio State, which he's like eh, fine. He refuses to see that he was a DEI admit to Yale as a non-combative vet. He rose despite them all. Ohio State and Yale? Those were auto-ads. |
