New ADL data reports 10,000+ antisemitic incidents since 10/7 attack.

Many protesters are returning to campuses with a new, more aggressive playbook, undeterred by recent policy changes. ADL has identified six key trends that should set off alarm bells for college and university leaders.

Counter Antisemitism: We All Must Act

Since October 7th, ADL has been responding to the surge in antisemitic incidents on college and university campuses. The more than 1,400 incidents recorded by ADL in the 2023-24 academic year underscore the urgent need for schools to commit to ensuring a safe, equitable, and harassment-free environment where all students can thrive.

Not On My Campus provides an actionable path toward No Tolerance for Antisemitism. We have made clear to university leadership the actions they must take to counter antisemitism on their campus, assessed them on their efforts in the Campus Antisemitism Report Card, and supported them in implementing change. ADL mobilized hundreds of thousands of volunteers demanding change on campuses across the country, urging Congress to support resolutions condemning antisemitism, and calling on the Department of Education Office of Civil Rights to protect Jewish students.

We saw the 2023-2024 academic year end in chaos. This year must be different. Together, we must continue to demand change using the many tools and resources at our disposal.

Pathway to No Tolerance

Committing to No Tolerance for Antisemitism requires clear, concerted action. There are several core action steps universities can and should take to demonstrate the commitment to No Tolerance and make their campuses safer, including six tangible actions universities can take now. Some have already taken important steps in implementing the policies ADL recommends. However, consistent and equal enforcement, as well as regular policy re-assessments, is essential to fostering a safe campus climate free from discrimination and disruptions.
