דער קערפער פֿון השם"Since #Hamas’ #October7 #terrorist attack, many #Jewish #faculty at #colleges and #universities across the country have been describing their professional lives in language more commonly associated with #trauma than #academic disagreement. In a nationwide #survey of more than 200 Jewish-identifying #US-based faculty conducted between April and July of 2025 by the #AcademicEngagementNetwork (#AEN) and the #AntiDefamationLeague (#ADL), respondents spoke of fear, isolation, and a loss of belonging on their own #campuses.
One Jewish faculty member starkly described the experience: “I’m being attacked online…I have been ostracized by faculty in a smear campaign. I have been advised…not to come to #campus…this is as bad as it gets.” Another shared, “faculty are not talking to me because they know I’m a #Zionist.” And another participant confided, “I am being attacked in all directions, and I no longer feel safe on campus.”
And these aren’t isolated incidents."
