Abstract:
This report is part of a program of research focusing on the identities of Jewish students and their experiences of anti-Israel hostility on college campuses. Using Brandeis University as a case study, the report takes a broad view and explores a wide range of issues at the intersections of undergraduates’ racial, ethnic, and religious identities. The study surveyed Jewish and non-Jewish students regarding perceptions of inter-group relations, experiences of prejudice and discrimination, attitudes on contentious issues, and beliefs about the campus climate for free speech and critical discourse.
