Global antisemitism has surged since the Hamas terrorist attacks of October 7, 2023. Now a civil-rights watchdog is exposing just how pervasive the problem has become on American college campuses.
StopAntisemitism’s 2025 campus report card examined conditions at ninety U.S. universities — and the findings are alarming.
Thirty-nine percent of Jewish students say they’ve felt forced to hide their identity. Sixty-five percent feel unwelcome in parts of their own campuses. And fifty-eight percent report that their universities failed to protect them.
Young people — members of a peaceful religious minority — are being targeted and marginalized at institutions that claim to prize inclusion. Even worse, administrators charged with maintaining safe, civilized learning environments are too often looking the other way.
Less than a century ago, the world vowed: “Never again.” Those words ring hollow when hatred is tolerated — or excused — in plain sight.
