The White House said it will deploy cybersecurity experts to schools amid a sharp rise in antisemitic threats and incidents at campuses across the country.
The Israel-Hamas war being waged half a world away is inflaming campuses here in the U.S. The Biden administration on Monday announced new measures to combat the sharp rise in antisemitism on college campuses since the start of the war.A few days ago at Cooper Union college in New York City, a group of Jewish students huddled inside a locked library as pro-Palestine protesters banged on the window.
'I think it's a really important time to understand that there's a difference between political discourse and the harassment, the attacks of Jewish students, on campus,' Julia Jassey, who runs a nonprofit called Jewish on Campus, said in an interview. President Biden, who on Monday told reporters that he was 'very concerned' about the rise in antisemitism, announced new steps to combat the problem.
