Over 1,600 Jewish alumni demand Harvard crack down on antisemitism in scathing letter
Fox News
A growing group of Jewish alumni and students are calling on Harvard University to crack down on antisemitism on campus, with some threatening to withhold donations to the school.
"These horrific events were met with acclaim by over thirty Harvard student groups, who called the intentional slaughter of civilians ‘justified’ and claimed that Israel was ‘solely responsible.’ This deluded romanticization of violence has been matched by calls for more violence and the obliteration of the state of Israel ‘by any means necessary,’" the group's open letter states.

The alumni blasted Harvard for remaining silent during the protests. "We never thought that, at Harvard College, we would have to argue the point that terrorism against civilians demands immediate and unequivocal condemnation," they wrote to President Claudine Gay and Dean of Harvard College Rakesh Khurana. "We never thought we would have to argue for recognition of our own humanity."
