Stanford Apologizes to Jews – WSJ

We re glad to see a university come clean. The report also includes good ideas for campus life today from not opening the school year on Jewish holy days to combatting anti-Semitism on campus though we hope the vague language will lead to action and not another diversity training session. But the apology would be a great deal stronger if Stanford and other schools could acknowledge a culture on campus so hostile to Israel that Jews who won t denounce the Jewish state can face harassment.

The most glaring absence in the report is any acknowledgment that the old discrimination against Jews has been replaced on many elite campuses by the new discrimination against Asian-Americans. Later this month the Supreme Court will hear cases about the use of race by Harvard and the University of North Carolina to limit the admission of otherwise qualified Asian-Americans.

And who is backing Harvard and North Carolina? None other than Stanford, which submitted an amicus brief supporting their race discrimination in the name of diversity. We look forward to Stanford s apology for that. Based on precedent, we can expect it in 2092.
