Amid rising antisemitism on college campuses like Columbia and Yale, Jewish students have faced verbal and physical attacks, including being told to go back to Poland and being assaulted with a Palestinian flag.

Antisemitism escalated to a boiling point at Columbia University, with incidents of harassment, threats, and physical assault against Jewish students, prompting a statement from the White House condemning the intimidation.

Columbia University's chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) and Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) remain suspended as the spring semester begins.

In response to the tragic Pittsburgh synagogue attack, AJC initiated the #ShowUpForShabbat global campaign to support the Jewish community and stand against intimidation.
