What are you talking about? No one's denying that anti-semitism exists, and there was a psychotic, anti-semitic man who committed a violent crime on campus recently, but it's totally unfair to label this as anti-semitism being "displayed" on campus.

What point are you trying to make? That anti-semitism is bad? Ok, thanks.
You are preaching to the choir when you type this on a Wesleyan University site.

Well, in Wes notwithstanding, it has been the subject of internet articles showing the existence of antisemitism in media including college campuses where it is openly displayed. This is a real fact that cannot be denied.

You would be surprised iif you look closely and pay attention. There are some websites such as camera.org and aim.org that touch on the subject.

Research for yourself

Accusing Wes of anti-semitism is preposterous. The campus is overwhelmingly Jewish. "Fruits of the hate mongering media" obviously has no idea what xi is talking about, whatsoever.

Argus staff: what the heck are you guys doing? Can you start deleting some of this inflammatory, ignorant and embarrassing nonsense?

Guys I hate to be practical here but the public's looking to you to post something to update us on the "real" scoop. Who what where when why how. What are all the news outlets saying, so we don't have to click all over the place... I just mapped Stephen Morgan's address in Marblehead Mass and it looks like he lived in a pretty nice neighborhood

Wesleyan isn't allowing anti-Semitism by any stretch of the imagination... An unrelated-to-Wesleyan, anti-Semitic man shot a Wesleyan student, and IS being held accountable.
By no means is this Wesleyan "incubating" or "advertising" anti-Semitism.

Wesleyan is very consciously against hate in general, and has one of the largest Jewish populations of any nondenominational college outside NYC. So don't you worry.

Universities should be held liable for the antisemitism that they incubate and advertise.

Any university allowing anti-Jewish hate groups to rally, advertise, recruit, produce films, etc, should be held accountable as accessories to murder or conspiracy to incite hate and violence.

Hold them responsible. Also hold the internet sites, newspapers, radio and television that promote the same accountable. Hold them accountable for creating an atmosphere that encourages such hate crimes.

All campus e-mail only specified "white male with thin build." Pretty vague. No further information regarding his physical characteristics has been released to the public.

This is hardly the appropriate forum for your faux-ironical p.c. crap. No one is laughing at your poor caricaturization of the standard Wesleyan post-modernist ravings; they are merely, instead, shaking their heads at what incredibly poor taste you have.
