Harvard Forces Jewish Student Group to ‘Hide’ Menorah

2

How is any of this different than 1930s Berlin? Antisemitic organizations and student activists worked to bring their genocidal ideology to  German universities and college campuses. The Nazis knew that taking control of Frankfurt University, like Harvard, would mean control of German academia. And they did, easily. Like Harvard.

Harvard forces a Jewish student group to hide its menorah each night after its lighting over fears of vandalism that “won’t look good” for the Ivy League school, the rabbi of Harvard Chabad said.

“On our campus in the shadow of Widener Library, we in the Jewish community are instructed, ‘We’ll let you have the menorah, you made your point, OK. Pack it up, don’t leave it out overnight because there will be criminal activity we fear and it won’t look good’,” Rabbi Hirschy Zarchi said at a Hanukkah lighting Wednesday night.

Zarchi, the founder and president of Harvard Chabad, said the university has asked the group to take in the menorah each night since the first Hanukkah lighting on campus.

But amid a rise in antisemitism across the world and on college campuses due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, the rabbi said the message is even more poignant.

“You know when change is gonna happen on this campus? When we don’t have to pack up the menorah,” Zarchi said.
“We in the Jewish community are longing for the day when we can refer to the president — and all of Harvard — as ours too,” Zarchi said. David McGlynn.
