Ironic and yet totally on brand. |

Penn has two types of students today. Legacy/development kids and the woke admits. Without the first they can’t continue to have the second.
President brought this on herself. Time to clean house and start fresh. |

Have friend spilling their Jewish kids out of Columbia. They don’t feel safe there and both have been threatened by the SJP students.
Not worth the risk. School is doing nothing about the threats. |

Penn, outside of Wharton, must be the worst of the Ivy League. |
leaders seem to be in over there head. The fact that Huntsman—a universally respected figure—sent his letter suggests that things at that school may be worse than people know. |
Transfer to UF. There is a large population of Jewish students at UF. |
| David Magerman is now pulling is financial support out of Penn. He says, "all moral citizens of the world, dissociate themselves from Penn" He is ashamed of his association with Penn. |
My daughter turned 7 today. I know she is 11 years away from college, but this terrifies me. My dad told me today that it’s just more of the same in terms of antisemitism. I don’t know if I agree. I have never been more scared to be Jewish. I don’t like Bibi. I really don’t. I just want to be safe. I want my daughter to be safe. |
| The sad thing is that Penn has a history of supporting Jewish culture. It was the first Ivy to throw open its doors to Jewish students while other ivies were limiting numbers. There was a vibrant Hillel on campus. This is very sad. |
I will never send my daughter there and will urge every Jewish person I know to not have their kids apply. It’s not safe. We need to start making a list of schools that aren’t protecting Jewish students. |

Penn has historically had a very large percentage of Jewish students enrolled.

Not for long. We will take our well-educated kids elsewhere. |

| Here’s a question for you all: are there Jewish students marching en masse and chanting inflammatory slogans? |
