The History Behind Rampant Antisemitism at CUNY

The History Behind Rampant Antisemitism at CUNY

“In a city with a 20% Jewish population, it is unfathomable that the largest urban US university located in that city failed to employ any Jewish administrative leaders by happenstance”

According to this article, it all started to go south in the 2010s, and a lot of it has to do with the BDS movement.

From the Jerusalem Post:

How did CUNY become the most antisemitic US university in just two years? Campus group finds out

“The chilling expungement of all Jews from City University of New York (CUNY) leadership positions was part of a broader, contemplated, and deliberate plan,” claimed the group Students and Faculty for Equality at CUNY (S.A.F.E. CUNY) in its new report on Saturday.

In the report, ‘How CUNY Became the Most Systemically Antisemitic US University in Just Two Years,’ SAFE says it uncovered evidence that there was a planned push to “purge” Jews from the CUNY leadership.

This was not always the case; CUNY was once a popular choice for Jewish students and staff, and the university regularly recruited from Yeshivas.

However, according to the SAFE report, CUNY began to dramatically change in the mid 2010s, sharply reducing recruiting visits to New York City’s Jewish schools, cutting advertising in Jewish media outlets, and seemingly deliberately curtailing recruitment of Jewish employees.

Through the early 2000s, CUNY regularly boasted of close to, or above, double digit numbers of campus presidents who were Jewish and well into double digits of senior leadership administrators who were Jewish, according to the report.

By the late 2010s, CUNY had a near-complete elimination of Jews both among its campus presidents and among its 45 other senior leadership positions. And by March 2023, there was not a single Jew among the 80 campus president and senior leadership positions.

“In a city with a 20% Jewish population, it is unfathomable that the largest urban US university located in that city failed to employ any Jewish administrative leaders by happenstance,” the report said.

SAFE reported that CUNY’s leadership on both sides of management and labor are “infected with Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS), anti zionism, and support for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).”
