Lukewarm University Responses Lead to Death Threats Against Jews
UCF's track record bodes poorly for its future.
In a development which surprises nobody, a university’s lukewarm response to Jew hatred has resulted in the normalization and promulgation of credible death threats against Jews.
Cornell University, which continues to employ a professor who openly endorsed Jewish death (albeit granting him a “leave of absence” at his own behest), recently went into lockdown over a spurt of credible death threats against Jews.
Cornell’s President has vowed that the publisher of these messages will be “punished to the full extent of the law.” It was not clear as of writing how Cornell would “punish” a person who supports Jew killing when they could not even bring themselves to fire a professor who did the same.
While UCF’s initial response to the outbreak of the Simchat Torah war was good by most Jewish student’s standards, and police presence at Jewish campus and off-campus events has been consistently strong, the lack of action against repeated instances of thinly-veiled (and sometimes unveiled) death threats against Jews may lead to a similar normalization and promulgation of credible death threats against campus Jews.
