University of Michigan Places D.E.I. Administrator on Leave Over Antisemitic Remarks About Jewish Students
Dec 13, 2024, 12:01 AM
The University of Michigan has placed a top Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (D.E.I.) administrator on leave amid allegations of antisemitism. The administrator is accused of stating that the university was 'controlled by wealthy Jews' and that Jewish students did not require the services of her office due to their perceived wealth and privilege. These remarks were made during a private conversation, which the official has denied. Reports indicate that a Jewish student at a recent conference expressed feeling unsafe, noting that he and his peers felt compelled to conceal their Jewish identity due to hostile reactions from others. The controversy has sparked broader discussions about the role of D.E.I. initiatives and their impact on Jewish students, with some calling for changes to ensure inclusivity for all groups, including Jewish students.
