Universities Across the US Continue to See Pro-Palestine & Anti-Israel Protests | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

While Rutgers and Northwestern tried to make efforts to avoid disruptions during their college graduation ceremonies, other universities had to contend with pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protests during what is supposed to be a joyous occasion for graduates. There were small, but vocal demonstrations earlier this month at Cal-Berkeley's graduation. In the nation's capital, George Washington University's commencement also featured protests. It's something that has caused a Yale alum to stage a protest of a different kind. President of the Lantos Foundation, Katrina Lantos Swett, joins to tell us more about the recent op-ed she wrote in Real Clear Politics titled "Why I'm Skipping My 50th Yale Reunion." Lantos Swett has been very vocal about the rise in antisemitism, not just in the US but also around the world since the October 7th attacks by Hamas. She discusses whether she ever thought she would see such displays at institutions of higher learning, including at her own alma mater. She places the blame for this type of culture on some college campuses at least in part on school administrators and leadership. Lantos Swett fills us in on what she thinks they did or failed to do. She explains how she thinks Jewish students at Yale and alumni should respond and how the university can foster a better environment for everyone. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
