"The College Fix has reported on over 200 stories since October 2023 of antisemitism or antisemitism concerns on college campuses," says associate editor Matt Lamb.
Some of the stories go beyond anti-Israel chants or encampments.
"They include, for example, someone who allegedly firebombed a police car at UC Berkeley, Colombia University administrators who were caught mocking an antisemitism panel, Jewish students prevented from attending classes at MIT, and various graduation ceremonies that were disrupted by anti-Israel protestors," Lamb lists.
Additionally, when a reporter from The Daily Caller went to the encampment at UCLA in April and May, he was told "that he shouldn't be asking questions because he's a white person." Also, violence ensued at other universities, such as when authorities tried to shut down encampments.
"At some universities, students have had their degrees withheld. In other cases, universities have had students arrested and then had the charges dropped," Lamb reports about some institutions' responses.
"Of course, those students have due process rights, and there are various things that might be going on between the university and law enforcement and the students," he adds. "A lot of those cases, I assume, will continue to play out in the coming months. That's the nature of the criminal justice system."
So while he expects this to be an issue going into the fall semester, Lamb also predicts universities will do better at cracking down on the disruptive behavior, which means there will be less of it in the upcoming school year.
