Hate on Campus: The Challenges Facing Jewish Students in the Shifting Campus Climate
Ari Gauss
Executive Director, North Carolina Hillel
and
Rebecca Simons
Director, Jewish Life, Duke University
It is commonplace to hear about incidents of hate on our college campuses in North Carolina and throughout the United States. From targeted attacks to anti-Semitic graffiti, from speakers with hateful platforms to anti-Israel resolutions, Jewish students today face challenges in the shifting campus climate.
Come hear how Ari Gauss and Rebecca Simons, two highly accomplished professionals, are working with students and administrators at UNC and Duke to foster a campus environment that promotes engagement, education and pluralism. Drawing on their years of experience as leaders in their fields, they will discuss the challenges that Jewish students face today and ways in which the greater Jewish community can help combat hate on campus.
