Sunee Kiernan, Second-year, Cowell, Theater: “[I think it’s being against Jewish people.”"

 

 

 

 

 

 

Michael Villegas, Third-year, Merrill, Cognitive Science: “I don’t believe seeing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a problem is anti-Semitic, and I don’t believe seeing Zionism as rather outdated is anti-Semitic, either.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rebecca Pierce, Fourth-year, Merrill, Film and Digital Media: “As a Jewish person I would see it as hatred directed at Jewish people. Policies that target Jews for discrimination.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oren Gotesman, Third-year, College Eight, Politics: “Zionism is a big part of my Jewish identity. Without it, I wouldn’t be Jewish ... If Zionism and having to honor the memory of the Holocaust were not a part of Judaism, I’d be an atheist. So it’s complicated, and I haven’t worked it out yet. ”
