UC Davis Gets Failing Grade from Advocacy Group, StopAntisemitism
- November 18, 2024
Davis, CA – The group StopAntisemitism has named UC Davis as “one of the most anti-Jewish colleges in America.”
In a report released on Monday, the group urges “Jewish parents and students to reconsider their application, citing the university’s failure to condemn rising antisemitism on campus following the October 7 terrorist attacks that killed over a thousand Jews in Israel.”
“University of California, Davis, has utterly failed to protect its Jewish students, allowing harassment, exclusion, and violent antisemitism to thrive unchecked,” StopAntisemitism founder and executive director Liora Rez said.
Rez added, “Despite reports of discrimination, death threats, and open hostility, the administration has taken little to no meaningful action, abandoning Jewish students in their time of need. This negligence not only endangers Jewish students but also sets a dangerous precedent for intolerance on campus. Parents, do not fund this complicity with your tuition dollars. Choose institutions that prioritize the safety and inclusion of all students—Jewish students deserve better.”
The group released its report on College Campuses in 2024 a little over a year after the 10/7 attack on Israel.
“(T)he findings are deeply disturbing, troubling, and downright depressing,” the report stated. “In the wake of the 10/7 massacre, weʼve seen an unprecedented surge of antisemitism on college campuses, and the data tells a chilling story. Since last yearʼs staggering 1,500% increase in antisemitic submissions…”
Most of the schools evaluated by the group, they said, “will receive failing grades, and the reasons are both alarming and unsurprising. Jewish students and professors have been ambushed, harassed, stalked, and physically assaulted.”
When it mattered most, the report continues, “these universities failed to confront the most pressing questions: Did they protect their Jewish students? Did they unequivocally stand with Israel against Hamas?”
They answer their own question: “The answer, tragically, in many cases is no. Some schools simply ignored the situation, while others created actively hostile environments for their Jewish students through sheer inaction or, worse, willful abandonment.”
Only two of the 25 schools completed the administrative survey.
Here’s what the findings purport to show:
55% of Jewish students have personally been victims of antisemitism at their schools.
- 43% did not feel safe enough to report the incidents. Of those who did report, a staggering 87% believe their school failed to properly investigate.
- 43% hide their Jewish identity from their classmates out of fear.
- 72% feel unwelcome in certain spaces on campus simply for being Jewish.
- 67% say Jews are completely excluded from their schoolʼs DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) initiatives.
- 69% are blamed for the actions of Israel—actions they have no control over.
- 67% feel their university did not take sufficient action to protect Jewish students in the wake of the 10/7 massacre.
- And perhaps most heartbreaking: 43% would not recommend their school to fellow Jewish students.
