Join the National Association of Scholars on Tuesday, April 25, at 2 pm ET for "Race in Higher Education: Persecuting Dissent."
Racial preferences have become ingrained in American higher education, transforming not only the admissions process but also the ins and outs of campus life. Despite the pervasive effects of these policies, the academy has declared them untouchable and works quickly to silence anyone who questions its discriminatory practices. How do the elites at American campuses punish those who espouse heterodox views on racial preferences? What can be done to change this?
This webinar features Amy Wax, Robert Mundheim Professor of Law at the University of Pennsylvania; Bruce Gilley, Professor of Political Science at Portland State University; Joshua Katz, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute; and Robert Steinbuch, Professor of Law at the University of Arkansas.
The discussion will be moderated by David Randall, Research Director at the National Association of Scholars.

Join the National Association of Scholars on Wednesday, April 26, at 1:30 pm ET for "Boycotting Israel: The BDS Movement on Campus."
Anti-Semitic incidents increased 34% from 2020 to 2021, according to the Anti-Defamation League. This is of little surprise to those who have kept a close eye on this phenomenon, particularly at American colleges and universities.
The “Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions” (BDS) movement against Israel is a particularly dominant force on many campuses, and represents one of the many faces of anti-Semitism in the United States. A new report, published by the National Association of Scholars (NAS) details the incentives given to students and faculty activists that increase anti-Semitism on and off campus.
The Company They Keep: Organizational and Economic Dynamics of the BDS Movement notes the origins and growth of the BDS movement, its failures and successes in three case studies, and the threats it poses to Jewish Students and professors. The report also provides recommendations to disarm anti-Semitic activists on campus. These reforms and initiatives seek to counter BDS by maintaining free speech on campus, protecting academic freedom, and mandating the political neutrality of public higher education institutions.
The event will feature Marc Greendorfer, Founder of the Zachor Legal Institute; James Jay Carafano, Vice President of the Kathryn and Shelby Cullom Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy and the E.W. Richardson Fellow; and the report’s author, Ian Oxnevad, Senior Fellow for Foreign Affairs and Security Studies at the National Association of Scholars.
