A whopping 39% of Jewish college students have had to hide their identities on campus while 62% said they have been directly blamed for Israel’s military action in Gaza, according to a new report obtained by The Post. The civil rights group StopAntisemitism issued its 2025 “report cards” grading how 90 colleges addressed the spreading hatred against Jews on campuses, with 14 schools flunking the exam — including two New York City universities. “This report exposes a disturbing and undeniable reality. Antisemitism on American college campuses is systemic and tolerated, and in many cases enabled by the very institutions tasked with protecting our American kids,” StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez said in a statement.

Several other Ivy League schools also received failing grades, including Brown University, Harvard University, the University of Pennsylvania and Yale. While Harvard vowed to tackle antisemitism in 2025 amid a public battle with the Trump administration over federal grants, StopAntisemitism found that “despite the new initiatives, the campus climate remains “tense and accountability uncertain.” A pro-Palestinian student speaking into a megaphone next to a statue wearing a keffiyeh, with a Palestinian flag in the background. 6 Students at the University of Pennsylvania also said they felt unsafe on campus since protests erupted following the Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack against Israel.

Altogether, 14 out of the 90 schools received a failing grade from StopAntisemistim. “The schools that received Fs in the report have become ground zero for antisemitism in American higher education,” Rez said. “These institutions pride themselves on being moral and intellectually elite, yet they repeatedly fail to protect Jewish students from harassment, intimidation, hostility, and real violence.” Dartmouth, in New Hampshire, received the highest grade for an Ivy League school in this year’s report with a B rating.

Cornell University, which received an F grading last year, was bumped up to a C, with StopAntisemitism noting that the administration has worked to address some of the concerns from Jewish students about safety on campus. “Cornell students reported multiple antisemitic incidents, raising concerns about safety and campus climate. The administration addressed them and affirmed its commitment to inclusivity, though some students felt support and enforcement were inconsistent,” the report said. Vassar College, located in upstate Poughkeepsie, also saw an improvement, going from a D rating last year all the way to a B in 2025 for its work to “enhance student safety.” New York Post front page for Thursday, October 12, 2023, with the headline "SCHOOLED ON HATE" and an image of students holding a Palestinian flag and a "Justice for Palestine" banner in front of a Harvard building. 6 Antisemitic incidents have been on the rise on many college campuses. rfaraino New York University, which was home to several anti-Israeli protests, also received a C grading, with students still asking the school to do more to tackle antisemitism.

StopAntisemitism ultimately called on all schools in the US to follow in the footsteps of the A-rated universities in condemning hate against Jewish students and forming a transparent and standard investigation policy against acts of hate. “While much of the attention has rightly focused on failures, this report also highlights campuses that understand what real leadership looks like,” Rez said. “These schools don’t wait for national headlines or external pressures to act, they set clear standards, enforce them consistently and fairly, and make it known that antisemitism is not tolerated on their campus,” she added.
