New York's governor orders college to remove Palestinian studies job listing
New York’s governor ordered a state school to remove a job posting for a Palestinian studies teaching position this week, saying she wanted to ensure “antisemitic theories” would not be taught. Campus free speech advocates say New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s intervention in the hiring process sets a dangerous precedent for academic freedom. Hochul ordered the removal of the ad because language in the job posting included phrases like “settler colonialism” and “genocide.” Hunter College officials say they are still looking for scholars with expertise in the subject matter. They plan to review the job posting language and repost the job.
