A recent Harvard/Harris question indicating that 67% of Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 believe Jews "as a class" are "oppressors" has attracted widespread attention as an indicator of widespread anti-Semitism. There is indeed reason to be concerned about anti-Semitism, including that on the political left and on college campuses. But we should not give much weight to this survey question. It's badly worded and at odds with other data.
