Jewish American Heritage Month

Posted By admin on June 15, 2024

Zachary Marschall, Editor-in-Chief of Campus Reform, joined Kelly Wright on Americas Hope to discuss the rise of anti-Semitism on college campuses and the lack of response from university administrations.

Wright said that theres a glaring double standard, stating that if the behavior seen today on college campuses were against Black or Islamic students, there would be outrage.

Marschall said that theres a large group in higher education who doesnt care about Jewish students.

As Ive said repeatedly for the past year, a lot of people in higher education dont care about Jews. The people with the power in higher education...have an outdated set of values and an outdated perception of how politics plays out on college campuses, Marschall explained.

At Northwestern University, for example, Marschall said that Jewish students werent able to walk through a portion of campus to get to class.

Pointing out the disconnect between university administrations and reality, Marschall said: Students have been brainwashed and cultivated into thinking that being anti-Semitic and being anti-American is a sign of nuance and sophistication.

When asked about possible solutions, Marschall proposed mass firings, expulsions, and arrests.

We need mass firings, we need mass expulsions, and we need mass arrests, Marschall said. And very shockingly, few people have actually been expelled from campuses, they are given warnings, theyre given letters saying why its bad. But that doesnt stop them from teaching classes. That doesnt stop them from being on campus to threaten and intimidate Jewish students.

Marschall praised how Gov. Ron DeSantis is handling the situation on college campuses, stating that theres a zero-tolerance policy at institutions within Florida.

What is happening in Florida. Its great. I think, Governor DeSantis has given incredible leadership, making sure that his public university system has a zero-tolerance policy for this kind of domestic terrorism, Marschall said.
