As students return to campus and K-12 schools, ADL continues to be hard at work supporting them and making sure that whatever they face on the quad or in the classroom, we will be there to help.


This Campus Briefing newsletter has returned to keep you informed about the latest news affecting students, faculty, staff and families. This first edition of the Fall semester brings together ADL ‘back to school’ resources that will help ensure that every member of the school community feels safe and welcome. Starting next Tuesday, you will get twice-weekly Campus Briefings with the news updates you need to be an effective advocate.

COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY RESOURCES


ADL, in partnership with Hillel International, the Jewish Federations of North America and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, has just released

a clear set of recommendations to help universities create more inclusive campuses for all. 

Why This Matters Now 

Since 10/7, we’ve witnessed heightened hostility on campuses, with hateful incidents ranging from classroom disruptions to the assault and harassment of Jewish campus community members. While some universities have taken strong actions to protect all students, staff and faculty, others have failed to adequately address antisemitism. 

What Universities Should Do to Prepare for the Academic Year

We’re urging universities to commit to these essential steps:

-
Promote campus safety by communicating and enforcing rules governing protests and demonstrations and policies prohibiting discrimination
-
Establish dedicated offices or coordinators for Title VI compliance whose primary role is preventing discrimination and addressing violations
-
Actively support Jewish students, staff and faculty
-
Develop and administer a process to assess the campus climate with respect to antisemitism
-
Hold faculty accountable to uphold professional and academic standards
Take Action Today

Together, we can help grow the movement of advocates who refuse to accept hate on campuses.  Contact your alma mater and other universities you're connected to and urge them to adopt these essential safety measures this semester.

SPEAK OUT NOW



Whether you are a student, an educator, a parent, a school administrator or an alum, you have seen hate and bias surge in recent school years. As this new academic year begins, it is vital to effectively address antisemitism on campus and in K-12 schools, and to protect all students.


With these resources and with the work of our staff and community of advocates across the country, ADL is here to be your partner in speaking up and taking action to ensure a safe and welcoming educational environment, and to hold institutions accountable when they fall short in protecting students. We hope this will be a great school year!
