[Author's note: I published a significantly longer version of this post at the Times of Israel.]
I recently posted an article about the increasingly hostile environment Jewish students face at elite law schools. Within hours, I heard from Michigan Law students upset and concerned about what one called "antisemitic invective" on a student email listserv called LawOpen, a listserv used almost entirely for student-group events and to resell tickets.
Students representing the Jewish Law Students Association sent out two separate emails, each advertising an event. The first announced an anti-bias event sponsored by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the prominent (and very liberal) Jewish civil rights organization. The second announced that students could apply for a trip to Israel.
