A hostile atmosphere in American universities?

The Abuse of Academic Freedom: University of California
-Tammi Rossman-Benjamin

Under the mantle of academic freedom, falsehoods and distortions about Zionism and Israel are heard in classrooms and at officially-sponsored events on many university campuses.

At the University of California, Santa Cruz, numerous cases of faculty-generated anti-Zionist political advocacy have been documented. Evidence of academic-freedom abuse has been presented to the faculty senate and administration for further investigation, but these efforts have largely been unsuccessful.
