They may not be acting in good faith but there is extremely clear evidence that UCLA has engaged in illegal racial hiring and admissions practices and has supported antisemitism on campus. UCLA chose to give them that ammunition.

> and has supported antisemitism on campus

You mean there were protests against genocide? Oops did I do an antisemitism by calling it a genocide?

Here in Germany, in Berlin, these "protests" included wrecking a lecture hall and seriously injuring a Jewish student.

I don't see why you refuse to even consider that there is more than 1 and 0 absolutes.

The majority of protests does not create such headlines. We have had smaller and larger protests in many cities(here in Germany). People meet, walk, speak, and that is fine and nobody complains. But especially in 2024 that was not all that happened.

I read similar students about threatened Jewish students at US universities.

It is, as so often, caused by a violent and vocal minority. But if a hundred protesters are peaceful and only one hits you on the head you still have a very bad day as the victim.

Maybe it is getting better, this report says that in 2025 things have improved for both Muslim and Jewish students: "The biggest takeaways from Harvard’s task force reports on campus antisemitism and anti-Muslim bias" -- https://edition.cnn.com/2025/04/29/us/harvard-reports-antise... (May 2025)

I wonder why the last Trump administration didn't do anything when there was a rally where people flew nazi flags, chanted "jews will not replace us" on the grounds at UVA, and murdered a counterprotestor. Why was that antisemitism overlooked?
