'No duty of care to your Jewish students or donors has been shown. This shames the pluralist ethos of the college'
“No duty of care to your Jewish students or donors has been shown. This shames the pluralist ethos of the college”It’s surprising that this is not happening at more schools. Why should Jewish people fund scholarships at schools that tolerate this?A prominent Jewish family has withdrawn a bursary for disadvantaged students at Trinity College Dublin in protest over the university becoming a “no-go zone for Jews” due to what it calls the university’s failure to protect student welfare.
He wrote to the provost of Trinity this week after the university released a statement on Wednesday in which it pledged to fully divest from three Israeli companies in which it held investments in response to a student protest encampment, and to review other ties to Israel. He said in a follow-up interview the “terrorist flag” reference was to a flag for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – designated a terrorist organisation by the EU – which was waved by some masked students on campus this week.
