Summer has been relatively quiet on the 10 campuses of the University of California. But with wars raging around Israel likely to continue into the foreseeable future, today’s tranquility probably won’t last far beyond the opening of the fall term, which quickly approaches.This is partly because the UC Board of Regents, with authority over the state’s most elite bastions of public education, has yet to adopt rules governing antisemitism.
Students who shouted “No Jews in here” while taking over Dodd Hall at UCLA, home to classes in social and political science, also saw few or no repercussions for their loud antisemitism. Together, encampments and protests cost the UC system $29 million during the last school year. Perpetrators won’t be dunned for this.
These messages were never official university policy, but readers could have been excused for thinking they were. This contrasted starkly with New York’s Columbia University, which demoted three deans who texted one another with age-old antisemitic tropes. The current policy bans any more official-looking political and bigoted statements on departmental home pages, even though no one has spelled out punishments if they reappear.
