The Future of Jews on American Campuses After October 7

Dr. Cary Nelson, UIUC Professor Emeritus and Jubilee Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences, will give a talk about antisemitism at American universities. Professor Nelson has written or edited thirty-nine books on topics which include modern American poetry, antisemitism, and the politics of higher education. His newest book, "College Zionists Confront the Abyss,” about reactions to October 7, will be published this summer, and forms the basis of this talk.
