The Jewish Press » » Survey: More than 70% Of UC Jews Touched by Anti-Semitism

I heard my friend get called a 'Zionist Kike' by SJP. Today, I was called a 'Kike' on campus by SJP.

I am putting this in Israel because support for Israel is the excuse that antisemites use to spread their disgusting propaganda. I will also say that this is NOT only a problem at UC schools. I was a once proud alum of USC (just take a look at my "Fight On" category on this page). NO LONGER. Not only do students at USC routinely experience antisemitism, but the school employs at least one professor who publicly encourages holocaust denial. USC's reaction to the alumni, including me, who were concerned about this was a complete non-reaction. My family and I had supported USC for decades. At this point, I won't support the school in any way. I attempted to contact the administration several times to repair the damage and SC, with all of its much promoted concern for its alumni, chose to ignore my requests. They obviously have no interest in dealing with the problem. What is clear , in SC's case, Holocaust denial and the false revision of history, is no big deal. The alumni only matter if they are major donors and the the infection of antisemitism that is rampant at the SC schools is just as embedded at USC.

Does the UC System Have an Anti-Semitism Problem? | Anthony Berteaux | The Blogs | The Times of Israel

It was her first week back at the University of California, San Diego, and Sara Ahdoot had already become the target of an anti-Semitic attack. A psychology senior at UCSD, Ahdoot had planned to celebrate the start of her last year of undergraduate studies with a bang: by going out to a club.

1. If I was still living in San Diego and witnessed this, the night would have turned out much differently. 2. USC , of which I am an alumnus, is starting to be almost as bad. This is a problem with our universities, not just the UC system (although they have been particularly pathetic about confronting antisemitism on their campuses).
