CONCLUSION While the results laid out in this report paint a dark picture of the reality for Jewish college students across America, StopAntisemitism is pleased to note that the seven schools (pictured below) that chose to respond to our survey include antisemitism in their DEI training, have established processes when responding to antisemitic incidents, and have established Jewish organizations on campus. These baseline steps are meaningful to Jewish students, and every institution of higher education across the country should follow suit as soon as possible. Despite commitments to prioritize safe spaces and DEI initiatives on campus, antisemitism continues to fester within American higher education. This pervasive issue has gained more mainstream attention over recent weeks as Jewish students demand the equal protection to which they are entitled. Efforts to address concerns are improving at some schools, but work remains to be done. If American colleges and universities truly take this matter seriously, they should adopt IHRA, revise DEI policies to include antisemitism, prohibit all its forms on campus, establish a Jewish affinity group if one does not exist, and integrate Jewish perspectives into the broader DEI discourse. 22
