The backdrop of this initiative is the conflict that began on October 7th, following an unprovoked attack by Hamas on Israel. The ensuing violence has led to a tragic loss of life on both sides, with thousands of casualties, predominantly civilians.
The universities have reportedly accepted donations, funding, and sponsorships from major arms firms over the past five years, some of which supply Israel with missiles and fighter planes.
In a letter to Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, Habash expressed, “I cannot stay silent as this administration turns a blind eye to the atrocities committed against innocent Palestinian lives, in what leading human rights experts have called a genocidal campaign by the Israeli government.”
Midway through the year, two significant upheavals in higher education occurred as the conservative-majority Supreme Court ruled against student loan relief and affirmative action in the college application process.
Since the Hamas attack on Israel on Oct. 7, a range of alumni, from billionaires to recent graduates, have expressed their intention to stop donations until Harvard takes more decisive action against antisemitism.
According to the paper by council Chairman Prof. Peretz Lavie and policy advisor Debbie Kaufman, the scientific ties between Israel and the world, including researcher exchanges, conference participation, sponsorships, post-graduate scholarships, and engagement in international research facilities, contribute to recognition, exposure, and international scientific standing.
The Jewish groups demand that the University of California system enforce its anti-discrimination policies and protect Jewish students, faculty, and speakers.
The war in Gaza, which took a more violent turn after the Hamas attack, has been devastating, claiming over 1,200 Israeli lives and leading to the capture of numerous civilians.

On November 10, pro-Palestinian students raised chants for an “intifada revolution,” a statement that deeply troubled many, especially given its historical context.
Campuses have historically been arenas of debate, protest, and political tensions, but few issues in recent years have been as fiercely contested as conflicts related to Israel and Palestine.
The controversy began when Brooke Johnson, an associate professor and coordinator of NEIU’s sociology department, had sent emails justifying the October 7 terrorist attacks by Hamas.
The incident has raised concerns as the subsequent slides during the performance included donation information for groups like the Middle East Children’s Alliance, Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, Medical Aid for Palestinians, and Gaza Mutual Aid Collective.
It asserts that despite NYU’s commitment three years ago to address and ameliorate campus antisemitism, the university has instead enhanced its antisemitic reputation, intensifying the hostile and intimidating atmosphere for Jewish students.
Israel’s major universities have launched multifaceted support initiatives, demonstrating their adaptability and commitment to their communities under crisis.
This resolution urges college and university leaders, administrators, and faculty to express their opposition to antisemitism inside the campus.
“Hamas transformed a university into a training camp for weapons development and military intelligence,” the Israeli military said.
Following 18 days of conflict with Hamas, this directive aims to restore a semblance of normalcy but is mired in complexities that have implications not only for students but for the broader social fabric.
This seeming lack of action places the MIT administration in a precarious position that could be seen as neglecting its duty of care to its students. It also places them under scrutiny for its handling of incidents that have implications far beyond campus boundaries.

The statement draws parallels with a similar joint statement by 33 student societies at Harvard University, which also blamed Israel for the conflict in Gaza.
