Hat tip Campus Reform and Pipe Dream (Campus newspaper of Binghamton University)
The University of Binghamton, part of the State University of New York (SUNY) system, has joined the growing list of universities being investigated by the Dept. of Education, Office of Civil Rights. This follows a complaint brought by Zachary Marschall, editor-in-chief of Campus Reform, lodged on behalf of Jewish students alleging anti-Semitic harassment on the part of pro-Palestinian activists on campus. This comes in the wake of a Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP)-organized walkout on October 25, 2023, in support of the Palestinians, in which a speaker stated that Israel was worse than Nazi Germany, a strange comparison, indeed, coming after the horrific Hamas attack of October 7.
All I can say is that it is about time. In 2014, it was revealed that the SJP chapter at Binghamton had produced a document in which it openly declared that disrupting pro-Israel events was a part of their strategy and policy. Ten years later, maybe-just maybe- something is being done about this toxic, brown shirt organization
