If you are Jewish you only send a student to a fully blue state at this point in time.
Anything else is bad parenting.

Especially a DD


The blue states are where all the violent, stupid anti-semites are, but whatever, you do you.

So as a Jewish person you’d rather be in a red Christofascist state where Biblical law rules all people? Make it make sense!

Then go to red states, it's quite simple.

Red states are making it very difficult to get abortions so that doctors can be thrown in jail for using their medical judgement. So OB/GYNs are gradually leaving because they don't want to practice in these states. So it is not just a matter of not being able to get an abortion (of course your precious virgin will never have sex!). It will become an issue of being able to get basic medical care.

Plus they are now discouraging basic immunizations. Your kids are probably immunized so likely safe but I still would not want to expose myself to these people.

No, "they" didn't. Jim Ryan resigned on his own, and the Board accepted the resignation. Three were preceding problems, most notably his handling of the three murders last year and what UVA knew about the shooter in advance but didn't act on. Also, Ryan got caught being disingenuous about dismantling the DEI programs - he just renamed them "community affairs office". The Board got pissed. I like the new acting head. And the Board is pushign ahead to find a new President. No one is upset. Ryan was a weak President. Some say he took the coward's way out by resigning.


A forced resignation is not resigning on his own. Don't be ridiculous.

No thanks. My kid is enjoying his college experience, not looking for reasons to be angry during the best years of his life. Rushing a top-tier house, dating all kinds of pretty girls already, and setting himself up to be a leader on campus, build a lucrative network, and have an amazing future. He's loving life! These angry kids with bull rings protesting for Palestine are just energy vampires sucking the fun out of everything. Who wants that on a college campus? College is supposed to be a blast!


Frat booster, you need a new AI prompt.

I am skeptical that "Trump administration pressure and political interference" has any practical effect on the ordinary student. How does it affect the daily conduct and content of the classes? Whatever that stuff is, it's happening above the heads of the students.


Excuse me?! James Ryan was forced to resign under pressure from Trump administration! You think the students don't notice federal overreach? the assault on academics freedom?


"Noticing" that the college president was forced to resign does not mean it affected their daily lives. As for the "assault on academics freedom" - give me a specific example from UVA on how Trump, this year, has caused any classes to be taught differently from they were last year.


You obviously are not paying attention -- or simply approve of Trump's overreach.

Dozens of grants have been terminated, and millions upon millions of promised money rescinded. Important research projects are stalled and stopped. So yes, there is a lot of concern about academic freedom and inquiry at UVA.

Faculty and student groups have expressed no confidence in the University governing body for failing to protect the university from "outside political influence."

Unbelievable you are denying this. UNBELIEVABLE! I mean, there’s a federal investigation going on!

Here you go, antiSemite:

This doesn’t actually refute that the whole thing is BS made up by the Trump administration to go after universities.

The sad thing is, there *is* antisemitism at UVA (and everywhere in America)—from NeoNazis. They walked through Grounds eight years ago chanting “Jews will not replace us,” and Trump defended them. They are even bolder now. Let me know when Trump decides to focus on that.

I’m a Jewish alum, btw.


Exactly. Why any Jewish person believes that Trump is on our side is beyond me.

+100000

Anyone who believes Trump supports Jews and claims to be a Jew is not a Jew. My family died in the Holocaust and 9/11 I will never forgive one so called Jew that voted for that POS.


As a fellow Jew I fully agree with you. Several of my traditionally Democrat Jewish friends have been gravitating towards him because they think he is good for Jews and Israel. Their ignorance is astounding. He has no interest in Jews or the well-being of Jews. Donald Trump only cares about one thing - himself. Notice how his Jewish child has distanced herself from him during this term? She can see right through it.

The fact that more people don't see through the motives of this snake oil salesman is truly astounding. It was kind of funny when he was a private citizen. Now he is destroying our nation. And making a lot of money doing so. And people are just rolling over and allowing it.


Thank you. 100% agree.

I'm physically there and think the Board has done a terrific job. To prove it, here is UVA's report card from the Anti-Defamation League for 2025. https://www.adl.org/campus-antisemitism-report-card/university-virginia.



+1. The Anti-Defamation League report is the gold standard.

You’re 50% right.

The blue states are where the violent, stupid antisemites are who believe Jews are evil white colonizers.
The red states are where the violent, stupid antisemites are who believe Jews are evil brown subhumans.

jokers to the right
here I am stuck in the middle we’re Jews

Well, virtually all of my Jewish family and friends from childhood, high school, and college prefer Blue States. I have a few in my circle who are happy in remote college towns within Red States but only because their towns are islands. The majority of my Jewish family and friends are also anti-Netanyahu. It is pretty clear to anyone who is thinking where there are more anti-semites.

If it were my DC, I would ask in person (not via email or telephone) at the Hillel Foundation at UVa.

It’s amazing how brainwashed they are. The South has always been the most racist for non-whites and non-Christians and still is. My kid is at an Ivy (not Columbia or Harvard) that saw very little protests- no encampments —much less than UVA, GW, etc. What they did have was shutdown very quickly, students were expelled, they voted against divestment.

Anyone with half a brain knows that Trump is falsely using anti-Semitism as a smokescreen to go in and control universities as we move towards a fascist government at lightning speed.
