At AJC Global Forum 2025, the Sharon Greene Award for Campus Advocacy was presented to three remarkable student organizations whose leaders have stood tall in the face of rising antisemitism and hostility on college campuses.

At AJC Global Forum 2025, education leaders tackled one of today’s most pressing challenges: how to ensure that schools and universities remain safe, inclusive spaces for Jewish students.

American Jewish Committee (AJC) has repeatedly insisted that universities must take action to counter and prevent antisemitism on their campuses. However, the broad, sweeping, and devastating cuts in federal funding that a growing number of American research universities have been subjected to in recent weeks, under the auspices of combating antisemitism, will damage America’s standing as a center of innovation and research excellence.

Following the Trump administration's decision to revoke $400 million in federal funding over Columbia University's failure to protect Jewish students, the university announced sweeping policy changes. Meanwhile, the U.S. moved to deport former Columbia student and pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, accusing him of concealing his ties to UNRWA. Dr. Laura Shaw Frank, Director of AJC’s Center for Education Advocacy, joins People of the Pod to discuss the delicate balance between combating antisemitism, safeguarding free speech, and ensuring campuses remain safe for all students.

AJC's Center for Education Advocacy (CEA) shares a commitment to fostering educational environments that promote critical thinking and inclusivity. Our collaboration with schools ensures that these spaces remain welcoming to all identities, including Jewish students, faculty, and families, while firmly rejecting all forms of antisemitism.

To ensure Israeli scholars and their American colleagues can collaborate freely, and foster research and innovation that benefits all of humanity, 2 scientists at MIT formed The Kalaniyot Foundation, named after Israel's national flower. Drs. Or Hen and Ernest Fraenkel speak on the impact of anti-Israel boycotts on academic collaboration with Israeli scholars, and what they’re doing to rehabilitate the reputation of Israeli researchers in the eyes of the world.

Imagine being spat on as you walk across your college campus simply because you’re Jewish or being asked whether you’re a “good Jew” or a “bad Jew.” As part of AJC’s State of Antisemitism in America 2024 Report, AJC and Hillel International partnered to document the experiences of Jewish students on campus. In the second installment of this two-part series, meet two students whose experiences reflect these alarming statistics.

Selecting guest speakers that align with your school’s values is critical for fostering a respectful, open-minded, and intellectually enriching school environment.

American Jewish Committee (AJC) and the Academic Engagement Network (AEN) write to convey their shared objections to a “Resolution to Oppose Scholasticide,” which members of the American Historical Association (AHA) voted to endorse during its recent annual meeting in New York City.

American Jewish Committee New Jersey Director Rabbi David Levy issued a statement following today’s agreement between the U.S. Department of Education and Rutgers University to settle numerous complaints tied to antisemitic and anti-Zionist activity on its campuses.

Monday evening, at American Jewish Committee (AJC) Philadelphia/Southern New Jersey’s 80th Anniversary Celebration: Shaping a New Future, AJC CEO Ted Deutch was joined by Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro for a conversation about antisemitism, the future of Jewish communities in Pennsylvania and across the nation, and growing political polarization not only in Philadelphia but throughout the country.

The Center for Education Advocacy (CEA) at American Jewish Committee (AJC) deeply values our partnership with independent school leaders.

American Jewish Committee (AJC), ADL (the Anti-Defamation League), Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA), and Prizmah: Center for Jewish Day Schools today expressed “deep concern” about remarks at a recent conference of the National Association of Independent Schools where several speakers used their time to accuse Israel of genocide and used extreme, biased anti-Israel rhetoric, including downplaying the Hamas terror attack on Oct. 7, 2023.

With the passing of the first anniversary of the October 7 Hamas terror attacks, and as we enter year two of the ensuing multi-front war between Israel and Iran-backed terrorist groups, parents of K-12 Jewish students may find themselves hearing about concerning situations or incidents their children face in school without knowing how best to navigate them.

Today, American Jewish Committee (AJC), Hillel International, and the American Council on Education (ACE) concluded a landmark two-day College and University Presidents Summit on Campus Antisemitism, held at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center. With more than 75 university presidents and chancellors attending, the Summit marked the largest-ever gathering of college and university presidents to discuss the topic of confronting antisemitism on campus.

Thousands of Jewish students have modeled resilience and strength in the face of exclusion and harassment since the October 7 attack on Israel. Hear are the stories of five such Jewish college students.

Here are some steps that AJC and Hillel International recommend institutions take to ensure that Jewish students and all students can learn in a safe and inclusive campus environment.
