In response to Cornell University’s College of Architecture, Art, and Planning’s (AAP) October 5 event with Brown University professor Ariella Azoulay that featured brazen dehumanization of Jewish immigrants to pre-state Israel, our international campus director Aviva Rosenschein made the following statement: “Unfortunately, many US universities, including some of the most...
