In England we have ‘Jewniversities’. These ‘Jewnis’, for short, are universities with large percentages of Jewish students. Birmingham, Leeds, Nottingham, Manchester, Oxford and Cambridge have 61% of UK’s Jewish students. Many say that anti-Semitism is to blame for this fact. If young Jews believe universities are hostile to pro-Israel viewpoints, they actively seek like-minded people at ‘Jewnis’ for reasons of comfort and security. Jewish students generally have positive experiences. However, in York University Jewish students refused to sign a joint statement with their university over their complaints of anti-Semitism, as it does not acknowledge the issue properly. In Oxford, the Labour party’s national student organisation launched an inquiry into allegations of anti-Semitic behaviour and intimidation. The London School of Economics Israel Society has called on the student union to change its attitude towards Israel and Jewish students. It published a poster online attacking the union for failing to take action over anti-Israel events on campus. See  and
