CONCLUSION Since our inaugural report was released last year, hundreds of Jewish students and families have reached out to StopAntisemitism to detail the harrowing experiences theyʼve endured at their colleges and universities because of their Jewish identity, as well as the lack of action taken by school administrations to curb this horrific antisemitic problem. Reports of antisemitic incidents have been rising exponentially, particularly following Hamas's massacre against Israelis on October 7. However, there is a noticeable shift in some of these institutionsʼ awareness. Many administrators have publicly denounced Hamas and expressed solidarity with Israel. Some schools are taking proactive measures to investigate and address antisemitic incidents. We express gratitude to those schools for their support during this challenging time. The remaining schools face a significant task ahead. Amid a surge in hateful and violent antisemitic incidents, there is an urgent need to establish safer and more inclusive environments for Jewish students who are often overlooked in DEI spaces. In conducting research for this report, StopAntisemitism found alarming and distressing patterns concerning the safety and well-being of Jewish students on American college campuses: ● Most Jewish college students have experienced antisemitism on campus at some point – either as a witness or a victim. ● Only 21% of respondents say they feel welcome as a Jewish person in all spaces on campus. ● Jewish students are reluctant to express their identity as well as their support for Israel, and often feel that their peers hold them responsible for Israelʼs actions. ● Most respondents felt that their school doesnʼt take incidents of antisemitism seriously enough and are therefore less likely to report antisemitic incidents. ● None of the schools featured in this report have adopted the internationally accepted IHRA working definition of antisemitism. 21
