The free speech committee plans to present conclusions to the Faculty Senate next month. The University recently reiterated protest policies as students formed a pro-Palestine encampment.
Amid protests from anti-Zionist students, President Richard Saller and Provost Jenny Martinez addressed how Stanford is responding to antisemitism on campus at a public panel hosted by the Blue and White Tent Wednesday.
They urged students to hear and learn from differing perspectives within Stanford’s campus regarding the Israel-Hamas war, the upcoming U.S. presidential election and other matters.
The University released statements on social media unequivocally condemning calls for genocide of Jews or any people, and affirming that such statements would violate the Fundamental Standard.
Richard Saller spoke to more than 275 members of the Stanford Jewish Alumni Network in a virtual Town Hall on Nov. 16. The meeting comes in the wake of a letter signed by thousands of campus community members denouncing the University’s response to the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.
