Kenneth Marcus
President Trump has nominated Kenneth Marcus of the Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under the Law to be Asst. Secretary of Education for Civil Rights. Having Met Mr. Marcus on several occasions, I am pleased at this nomination, which I think will be important given the many problems on our university campuses.

Not only is it a positive development to have someone in this position who has worked to fight anti-semitism in our universities, I am confident that Mr Marcus will advocate for the benefit of any student facing discrimination or harassment in education whether they are Jewish, Christian, Muslim, black, white, Hispanic, Asian or whatever. Mr Marcus believes in equality and equal justice.
This is a badly needed appointment. The environment on our universities campuses is being poisoned by the day, and much work needs to be done.
