Hillel International’s 'red lines' on Israel are the real problem

By Lily Gellman I actually have met Slav Leibin. We’ve conversed extensively in English and Hebrew, and he’s a great guy. As Tehila Wenger observes in her op-ed, Leibin was only doing his job when he pointed out that the Center for Jewish Life bars Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions at its gates.

Is Professor Weiss suppressing Israeli academia?

Professor Max Weiss has never met Slav Leibin. Obviously. If he had, he would have understood that Leibin, the Jewish Agency Israel fellowat the University's Center for Jewish Life,was acting in a purely advisory capacity when he pointed out that Weiss’s support ofthe Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movementis at odds with the CJL’s Israel policy.

Who am I writing for?

Since last week, I’ve had to do some soul-searching to find it in me to keep writing — not because my freshman seminar professor shredded my first essay with the same rapture my five-year-old self found in making confetti, but because my one “successful” work this year didn’t directly achieve what I had hoped.By metrics of circulation, my column titled “Keep misandry out of feminism” was, in fact, a success: it sparked 154 online comments, emails from as far away as Denver, a response column by Marni Morse and a retweet by feminist author Christina Hoff Sommers to her 20,000 followers.
