Congresswoman Stefanie Stefanik asked. "Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard University’s rules of bullying and harassment? Yes or no?" at the House Committee on Education & the Workforce

            It was a question heard around the world.
"Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard University’s rules of bullying and harassment? Yes or no?"

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s relatively simple question at the House Committee on Education & the Workforce Committee hearing on antisemitism was not meant to be a trick question 

Yet, in a remarkable moment that exposed the antisemitic rot infecting America’s higher education, the then morally bankrupt university presidents of MIT, Penn and my alma mater Harvard testified that the calls for genocide of Jewish students could be acceptable "depending on the context."

Stefanik’s question was unfortunately not hypothetical. The bullying and harassment of Jewish students on American campuses has gone relatively unchecked as administrators give preference to those who chant "Death to America" and call for the genocide of the Jewish people and the state of Israel. I know because I have seen it firsthand as a Jewish student on Harvard University’s campus over the past year.
Since the Hamas invasion of Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, there has been an explosion of antisemitism on "elite" American college campuses. At Harvard alone, a Jewish student was spat on, an Israeli student was asked to leave class because her nationality made classmates "uncomfortable," and another Israeli was assaulted at the business school.
