The state has an opened a probe into whether CUNY’s School of Law discriminated against Jews after its faculty council passed an anti-Israel resolution last year.
The “active investigation” was confirmed in a Feb. 16 letter from the agency, a Kingsborough Community College professor who is co-founder of Students and Faculty for Equality at CUNY .
The resolution also demanded that CUNY sever ties with Israel and accused the school of being “directly complicit in the ongoing apartheid, genocide, and war crimes perpetrated by the State of Israel against the Palestinian people through its investments in and contracts with companies profiting off of Israeli war crimes.”
“There is clear evidence that the discrimination in the BDS movement disparately impacts Jewish people, and/or people that the movement feels are too closely affiliated with Israel. We believe that the new BDS policies implemented at CUNY Law School discriminate on the basis of real or perceived creed, ethnicity, and nationality. It is our hope that the NYSDHR will recognize and expose the policy for what it is: discrimination against protected classes of Jewish people.
