Heading into the school year, college campuses must be a place where Jewish and pro-Israel students can learn, thrive, and grow—and not be a hotbed for antisemitic and anti-Israel hate. As Jewish students around the country face harassment, intimidation, and violence on campus, these students are flipping the script, showing their Jewish pride and sounding the alarm on rising antisemitism. Watch the video below, which was played at the American Jewish Committee (AJC), Hillel International, and the American Council on Education (ACE) College and University Presidents Summit on Campus Antisemitism.
How AJC is transforming the climate on campus for Jews:
- AJC, Hillel, and ACE Convene 75+ College and University Presidents for Historic Summit on Campus Antisemitism
- Hillel and AJC Expanded Partnership | Hillel International and AJC launched, in March, an expanded partnership to work with college and university administrators to counter antisemitism on campus. In 2025, AJC’s groundbreaking Project Interchange and Hillel’s flagship Campus Climate Initiative will host a joint delegation of university and college administrators from across the country to travel to Israel for an immersive learning program.
- October 7 Guidance for University Administrators | AJC’s new Center for Education Advocacy has created resources and guidance for university administrators on how to best prepare for the one-year anniversary of October 7.
- Jewish on Campus and AJC Partnership | AJC and Jewish on Campus launched a new partnership to better support young Jews before, during, and after their time as college students.
- Action Plans for Confronting Antisemitism | AJC released toolkits that lay out concrete ways to improve educational environments for everyone.
