The Sorry State of Holocaust Studies in North Carolina
In 2021, North Carolina made a decision that deserves real credit. With the passage of the Gizella Abramson Holocaust Education Act, the state mandated Holocaust education in public middle and high schools, ensuring that younger generations would confront one of history’s clearest warnings against hatred, ideological extremism, and the catastrophic consequences of antisemitism. The law reflected a hard truth: historical memory does not preserve itself.
Who Counts as an Anti-Semitism Expert? — Minding The Campus
Past editions were held at Indiana University, Lewis & Clark College, Florida International University, and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). With papers claiming that “white Jews” are “directly implicated in and often beneficiaries of our racist systems,” and that they sometimes help “propagate White privilege,” the event became an inversion of what it stands for.
The Derangement of American Psychotherapy — Minding The Campus
“The most mentally deranged people,” Tolstoy writes in The Devil, “are certainly those who see in others indications of insanity they do not notice in themselves.” In today’s culture, disturbed minds often feel sanest when they are paying for psychotherapy, buying pop-psychology books, and most often by becoming professional experts themselves. And what is more deranged than hating Jews?
Anti-Semitism and the Character of America — Minding The Campus
She had spent all her career studying anti-Semitism, yet when it appeared beside her in the hearing room, she mistook it for a procedural question.
The “Mindfulness” Degree — The James G. Martin Center for Academic Renewal
Do American colleges still teach students how to think? Or have whole programs been built on fashionable but unexamined assumptions? Increasingly, one wonders whether parts of the curriculum are outright harmful. For years, it has felt as though American higher education were approaching rock bottom. One of the newest degrees on offer suggests we may finally have arrived.
What’s the Matter with Hillel? | Eastern NC Now
Publisher's Note: This post appears here courtesy of The James G. Martin Center. The author of this post is Christopher L. Schilling. Since its founding in 1923, Hillel has become the most important Jewish campus organization in America and abroad, with a presence on more than 800 campuses across the world. Its programs and leadership are central to campus Jewish life and, looked at a certain way, reflect the broader failure of colleges to educate students these days.

Combatting Antisemitism with CRT? – Christopher L. Schilling
When Caryn Elaine Johnson—the daughter of a Baptist clergyman with no Jewish background and better known by the stage name “Whoopi Goldberg”—declared on The View that the Holocaust “isn’t about race,” she was immediately and rightly rebuked. Nazi ideology treated Jews as a race, and the Nuremberg Laws codified that racial definition into persecution and extermination. To deny this is to deny history.
The Coming Jewish-Student “Brain Drain” — Minding The Campus

The Coming Jewish-Student “Brain Drain” — The James G. Martin Center for Academic Renewal
After the most recent outbreak of campus antisemitism in America, the Israel Association of University Heads issued a statement denouncing the mistreatment in question and voicing their support for Jewish and Israeli members of the offending institutions. “We will do our best to assist those of them who wish to join Israeli universities and find a welcoming academic and personal home,” they concluded. The heads of all nine public universities in Israel signed the joint statement.
'Can Universities Take Anti-Semitism Seriously?' — Minding The Campus
In response to my recent Martin Center article, “The Emptiness of Antisemitism Studies,” George Leef wrote in National Review and posed the question: “Can American universities take antisemitism seriously?” His framing perfectly captured the larger stakes of the problem. My original piece—later reprinted in Minding the Campus and by the Canadian Institute for Jewish Research—showed how little reason there is to expect current universities to treat the subject with much rigor.
Qatar and China Raise Eyebrows on Campus—What About Germany? — Minding The Campus
Much has been reported lately on the influence of foreign actors such as Qatar, Iran, and China on American campuses. What seems to slip under the radar in this debate, however, is the influence of ostensibly friendly actors such as Germany. Through the quasi-governmental agency German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), “German studies professors” are placed at universities across America to teach courses on politics, history, anthropology, and philosophy.

A New 'Anti-Semitism Scale' Reveals the Perils of Politicized Social Science — Minding The Campus
Should we measure and scale anti-Semitism? Do we really need to know whether Harvard is the most anti-Semitic college in the United States or whether Egypt ranks number one in the Middle East—or is it Jordan? Anyone can see that those places are steeped in Jew-hatred, regardless of who “wins” the competition. The Netherlands records one of the lowest levels of anti-Semitism globally—according to the ADL—yet there was violent anti-Semitic unrest in Amsterdam in November 2024.
Jewish Studies Has a Problem—And It’s Anti-Semitism — Minding The Campus
Much has been written about how places like Harvard have failed to protect Jewish students from anti-Semitism. The coverage is both shocking and, sadly, predictable. But what’s really struck me lately is just how willing Harvard can be to take action on anti-Semitism, so long as it means going after Jews. people can [she laughs] someone can say something that’s anti-Semitic that’s [sic] Jewish, and someone can still have um a harmful effect on other Jews even if they are Jewish.

The Emptiness of “Antisemitism Studies” — The James G. Martin Center for Academic Renewal
Following the shock caused by the antisemitic campus riots of spring 2024, Günther Jikeli spoke up. Jikeli, an associate professor from Germany and one of only two faculty members at the Institute for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism (ISCA) at Indiana University, published a call to action in The Algemeiner: Giving up on universities is not the right strategy. […] Donors, both large and small, should support research and programs that oppose antisemitic thinking and behavior.

Liquid crystalline self-assembly of mixtures of rod- and wedge-shaped MIDA boronates
Liquid crystalline self-assembly of mixtures of rod- and wedge-shaped MIDA boronates† Rod-like MIDA boronates form smectic mesophases, while wedge-shaped MIDA boronates self-assemble into columnar mesophases. However, the phase behavior of mixtures is less understood. In order to obtain further insight on the molecular self-assembly of MIDA boronate mixtures two series of binary mixtures of rod-like and wedge-shaped mesogens were prepared.
The Therapized Antisemite
Overview The Therapized Antisemite determines the failure of psychology in the understanding and punishment of antisemitism. For over a hundred years, psychology’s vision – understanding the mind and conquering feelings with thoughts – has remained a myth in much of Western societies. Despite its theories and concepts being widely criticized and often proven wrong, it remains part of our culture, academia, and legal systems.
