“I’m not interested in supporting the institution,” Ken Griffin, one of the largest donors to Harvard University
Griffin, who donated $300 million to Harvard last year, joins a wave of donors who have halted gifts because of concerns over the school’s handling of antisemitism on campus since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel, in addition to broader concerns over the influence of diversity initiatives and left-wing bias at the university.

Alarming Survey Reveals Rise in Fear and Hate Targeting Jewish Students on Campuses 📊
As we reflect on Holocaust Remembrance Day, a stark reminder of the dangers of prejudice and hatred, the Israeli American Council and Science Abroad unveil a deeply concerning survey revealing a dramatic rise in fear and exposure to hate faced by Jewish and Israeli students on campuses across North America and Europe. Conducted between December 15th and January 7th, 2024, the survey offers an alarming snapshot of campus life for Jewish and Israeli students, particularly in the wake of October 7th, 2023 events.

These findings cannot be ignored. Jewish and Israeli students deserve to feel safe and supported on their campuses, where they should be able to pursue their education without fear or discrimination.

We must all stand together against antisemitism and ensure that our campuses are safe havens for all students, regardless of their background or beliefs.

Share this post, raise awareness, and demand action. Together, we can create a more inclusive and tolerant learning environment for everyone.
