Anti-Semitism Comes to Vanderbilt University
by Paul Miller17 Mar 2015
Nashville, TN–Members of the Jewish fraternity Alpha Epsilon Pi at Vanderbilt
University became the latest target of campus anti-Semitism–discovering
swastika’s spray-painted in the elevator of their fraternity house, and another
swastika painted on a basement door, according to an e-mail from Provost and
Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Susan Wente.
According to a campus-wide email sent out by Wente on Monday
the Vanderbilt University Police Department, with the assistance from the Dean
of Students Office, is currently investigating the hate crime.
“We understand the anguish and pain that this hateful symbol
causes and we stand together to condemn any effort to intimidate or send an
unwelcoming message to the Jewish members of the Vanderbilt community,” Wente
said.
Dean of Students Mark Bandas sent an e-mail later that day
advising students of available resources for those troubled by the incident.
According to the Vanderbilt Hustler,
Executive Director of Vanderbilt Hillel Ari Dubin wrote in a statement,
“Vanderbilt Hillel, Chabad, and the rest of the Jewish community on campus
stands firmly with AEPi. While the swastikas were spray-painted at the AEPi
house, this inexcusable incident impacts every Jew on campus, and has no place
at Vanderbilt.”
Dubin continued, “Spray painting swastikas at a Jewish fraternity
is not a college prank or some mischievous act of vandalism. It is a malicious
attack intended to bring to mind the horrors of the Holocaust, to force us to feel
different, endangered and isolated.”
This is just the latest anti-Semitic attack on U.S. college
campuses.
Last week in New York City, John Jay College of Criminal
Justice was the scene of swastikas and anti-Semitic slurs, accompanied by
racist and homophobic graffiti.
Earlier this year, Jewish students at the University of
California at Davis awoke one
morning to swastikas spray-painted
on their fraternity house. This occurred less than 48 hours after the school
student government passed an anti-Israel resolution to boycott targeted
companies who do business with the Jewish state.
