The End of an Era? Jews and Elite Universities (Sessions 1 - 3) – In-Person Program and Live on Zoom
This program gathers a remarkable group of scholars, writers, and thinkers for a day of urgently needed discussion about the recent surge of antisemitism on American college campuses. Focusing on the turmoil at Harvard University, Columbia University, and other elite bastions of higher education, the panelists will explore the complex history of Jews and American universities, analyze the factors contributing to the current crisis, and venture solutions for the future. The symposium is the latest event sponsored by the Center for Jewish History’s Jewish Public History Forum.
