Antisemitic and raging anti- Israel sentiment continues to flourish at City University of NY, which was once known as bring one of the most Jewish friendly campuses in America dating back to a darker time for Jews in America.

VIN News reported: Brooklyn College, which has been embroiled in controversy over antisemitism and discrimination against Jews, has scheduled a “bias training” course on Yom Kippur.

The training is required for faculty members who serve on job search committees. One of the four Zoom training sessions is scheduled for the morning of Yom Kippur.

The NY Post quoted a Jewish professor regarding the bias training who said: “This biases the process against observant Jews and secular Jews who typically attend services on this one day of the year. Such Jews are afforded only three meeting opportunities, while all others are afforded four. That sounds like implicit bias to me. Imagine, if that was done to a group that is viewed as a disadvantaged minority.”

Brooklyn College offered another meeting on the day before the holiday after the backlash, but the damage was done, and the message is clear.

It is noteworthy to point out Brooklyn college itself made the list of most antisemitic college campus in America recently.

JNS reported: StopAntisemitism divided the 25 schools into five categories: Ivy League, liberal arts, state schools and public and private schools with the highest population of Jewish students. The watchdog organization then analyzed and graded each school based on five components: protection of students regarding anti-Semitic incidents, policy, allyship with Jewish students and how students identify publicly or feel the need to hide their Jewish identity on campus.

Using report card-style grading, StopAntisemitism gave seven schools an F and only three schools an A. Brooklyn College received a failing grade.

Across town from Brooklyn college, hated of Jews is alive and well in the beautiful neighborhood of Manhattan Beach at Kingsborough Community College.

Jeffrey Lax, a professor at CUNY’s Kingsborough Community College, says in a complaint that CUNY’s leadership, including Kingsborough president Claudia Schrader, failed to act on the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s recent confirmation of pervasive discrimination against Jews on CUNY’s campus. Pro-Israel faculty members and those who identify as Zionist have repeatedly reported being targeted for their beliefs.

The university initially sent in an anti-Israel extremist to investigate the situation at “K at the Bay” before the backlash, prompted the powers that be to reverse course.

City University of New York placed the investigation in the lap of Saly Abd Alla, an official in the school’s discrimination office but hardly an ally of the Jewish people.

Abd Alla came to CUNY from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, where she worked as a civil rights director alongside officials who have promoted anti-Israel agitprop and defended Jew-hating terror groups including Hamas.

“Political correctness is destroying college, at CUNY, the proper PC speak  is to believe Israel is an apartheid state, Palestinians are innocent victims and to be Jewish is nothing but white privilege and any allegiance to Israel is evil, Zionism has become a word synonymous to being a literal Nazi, and if you diverge from the left’s determined proper thinking, you will be harassed and run off campus”, a Brooklyn College student, told TJV.

Meanwhile Inside Higher Ed, reported on another Brooklyn College Incident, which as flown under the radar thus far:

The Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights is investigating a complaint alleging that Jewish students enrolled in Brooklyn College’s graduate mental health counseling program have been subjected to anti-Semitic harassment from professors and peers.

The complaint, filed on behalf of two Jewish students in the master’s program, alleges that professors in the program “have maligned Jews on the basis of race and ethnic identity by advancing the narrative that all Jews are white and privileged and therefore contribute to the systemic oppression of people of color.” It also alleges that Jewish students have “been bullied in class discussions and on social media by student peers who target Jewish students using the same ethnic stereotypes, antisemitic tropes and divisive concepts that faculty members promote in their courses.”
