‘Administration doesn’t care’: Jewish students on campus antisemitism

America Speaks with Frank Luntz (Video)

Following Israel’s military response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack in Gaza, U.S. college students at universities nationwide started organizing protests, boycotts, sit-ins, and other forms of non-violent protest against continued U.S. military support to Israel. Whether or not those protesters ever intended it, many Jewish students started reporting that they felt pressured to change their behavior or how they spoke about certain issues, some out of fear for their safety. And while some of these protestors are Jewish themselves, that has not stopped a documented trend of rising antisemitism both off and on campus.

In this 41-minute episode of America Speaks, pollster and political analyst Dr. Frank Luntz asks Jewish college students in the U.S. to share their experiences on campus and what they’ve seen from the protests. They describe a culture of antisemitism, with an administration that is reluctant to provide support.
