Default Jewish groups seek changes in anti-Semitism definition at California universities

Quote:
University of California President and former US secretary of homeland security director Janet Napolitano has already come out in favor of the proposed definition.

A Coalition of Jewish organizations has asked the University of California to update its definition of anti-Semitism to include the delegitimization of Israel, “as a first step in addressing the alarming rise in anti-Semitic activity on UC campuses.”

More than 30 organizations, including Jewish fraternity AEPI, the Simon Wiesenthal Center and the Zionist Organization of America wrote to University of California regent Bruce D. Varner last month,

requesting that substantive measures, such as adopting the State Department’s definition of anti-Semitism, be taken.

In a 2010 fact sheet, Washington’s special envoy to monitor and combat anti-Semitism adopted Jewish Agency chairman Natan Sharansky’s ”three Ds” benchmark for assessing potentially anti-Semitic

criticism of Israel, stating that efforts to demonize, delegitimize and apply double standards to Israel qualified as anti-Semitism.

The university’s regents are expected to vote on a statement regarding anti-Semitism in September.
