A coalition of Jewish organizations says it is B次元官网网址渄eeply alarmedB次元官网网址� by a rising tide of antisemitism at the University of British Columbia in recent weeks.

A joint statement sent out by six groups, including the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver and Canadian Jewish Advocacy, says Jewish staff, students and faculty members at the university have faced B次元官网网址渁n increasingly hostile environmentB次元官网网址� since the start of the academic year.

The statement lists incidents such as campus buildings being vandalized with antisemitic slogans, Jewish faculty members who were targeted by a smear campaign, and an anti-Israel studentB次元官网网址檚 club promoting violence and disinformation.

The statement released Wednesday says they are grateful for ongoing conversations with the universityB次元官网网址檚 administration about the B次元官网网址済rowing threatsB次元官网网址� targeting the Jewish community, but more urgent actions are needed to address the hatred and harassment.

The university says in a statement that it is working with the RCMP on one act of vandalism that was reported this month at Green College, where slogans were spray-painted on exterior walls and one window was broken.

UBC spokesman Matthew Ramsey says the vandalism is B次元官网网址渦nacceptableB次元官网网址� and contrary to the universityB次元官网网址檚 values, and any community members found to have been involved in this B次元官网网址渨ill face disciplinary action.B次元官网网址�
