[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tulane has a significant Jewish population. [/quote]

Correct. It is over 45%. Highest in the US.[/quote]

Wrong. IT is not 45%…..we are Jewish and my kid is at Tulane. Number is high, but not even above 30%[/quote]

According to the Hillel Guide To Colleges: Tulane University is at 43% Jewish students population (3,042 Jewish students out of 7,295 total students.)[/quote]

I don’t think I’d want to send my Christian dc to a school for this reason. Not bc we are anti semitic or religion is so important to us but because it’s often a place where people meet their life partners and life long friends etc, and many Jewish parents I know secretly (or not so secretly) don’t want their dc ending up with non Jews.

Hillel is wrong. The number is more like 25%. I’m the PP. Both of my Jewish kids are there now. My daughter’s BF is Catholic….and I’m perfectly fine with that. Stop he madness…[/quote]

Why would Hillel be wrong and your anecdotal evidence is correct?

I appreciate that you don’t mind your dd *dating* a Catholic but many Jewish parents do care that their children end up marrying within the community. To deny this is silly.
