The solution is not reform, DEI has failed too fully, too structurally, and too consistently, and must therefore be completely dismantled. Its ideological rigidity, selective morality, and entrenched double standards have helped fuel the worst wave of campus antisemitism in modern American history. Worse still, academiaʼs refusal to confront this hatred threatens its own survival. Universities are meant to be beacons of reason, institutions committed to intellectual freedom and the pursuit of understanding. Instead, by allowing, endorsing, and institutionalizing anti-Jewish hatred, universities are poisoning their own foundations. The erosion of the bedrock principles of education does not just harm Jewish students, it threatens the very viability of higher education itself. If universities do not confront and uproot the systems that enable antisemitism, they will continue to fail their Jewish students–indeed all their students–and they will continue to betray their very reason for existing. Jewish students want to be proud of their schools, not afraid of them. If they want to survive, universities should take heed. The time for decisive action is not approaching. It is long overdue.
