[quote=Anonymous]This is a very interesting article about anti-Semitism on college campuses.

It talks in part about surveys around what 18-29 year olds know and don’t know about anti-Semitism. Critically, it seems most college students do not use Jews’ perspectives on what is anti-Semitic to guide them as to what is indeed anti-Semitic:

Our survey asked this question: “If a Jewish person or organization considered a statement or idea to be anti-Semitic, would that make you more likely to consider it anti-Semitic, less likely, or would it make no difference to you?” About two-thirds, or 64 percent, of people aged 18 to 29 said it would make no difference to them if a Jewish person told them something was anti-Semitic. Another 21 percent said that such protestation from Jews would make them less likely to consider something anti-Semitic. To fight anti-Semitism as seriously as we confront any other bigotry, we must normalize believing Jews.

It also says that 41% of American Jews aged 18-29 had been a victim of an anti-Semitic remark or attack. [/quote]
