More than 1,600 Harvard alumni are saying they will withhold donations to the Ivy League university unless school leadership takes swift action to address antisemitism on campus.
“We never thought that, at Harvard University, we would have to argue the point that terrorism against civilians demands immediate and unequivocal condemnation. We never thought we would have to argue for recognition of our own humanity,” the Harvard College Jewish Alumni Association (HCJAA) said in an open letter to President Claudine Gay and Dean of Harvard College Rakesh Khurana.
The HCJAA, which says it is the first Jewish alumni association in the history of Harvard’s history, was created last month following the university’s response to the October 7 attacks on Israel, and to its student groups that issued a pro-terror letter in reaction to the attacks.
