  Biden Administration aims to combat 'Anti Semitism' on College Campuses  Since the start of the 'Isreal-Hamas' war started in early October there has been an alarming increase in antisemitic incidents across college campuses across the United States. The departments of Justice and Homeland Security are working with campus law enforcement to monitor online hate speech and will provide federal resources to schools.  Leading Jewish organizations are concerned with the antisemitic and hateful rhetoric that has been revealed during this time. The Education Department is conducting visits across the U.S. to address this issue.  “These grotesque sentiments and actions shock the conscience and turn the stomach.

  Liberty University Creates Unsafe Environment for Students The Washington Post , Oct. 2023 Liberty University a private Christian school in Lynchburg, Virginia has hidden, underreported and destroyed evidence of campus crimes. The Department of Education launched a investigation into the school after receiving a complaint in May 2021. The review included data from 2016 to 2022.

Because the Washington Post has made claims based on some information that is false, is not final, and is not public, the University will not comment specifically on any questions posed by the Washington Post at this time.” However this is not the case, the school has failed to make a safe environment for its 90,000 students. Some of the crimes that were not reported include sexual assaults, bomb threats, and even se...
