This resolution calls on campus administrators to do the following: condemn all forms of antisemitism on college campuses; ensure Jewish faculty, students, and guests can exercise the same free speech rights as are guaranteed to all other faculty, students, and guests without intimidation; ensure that no speaker is prevented from speaking on campus because of their Jewish heritage; ensure Jewish students have the same opportunities as all other students on campus; and ensure the security and safety of their Jewish students. The resolution also supports the right of Americans to freely exercise their religious and cultural beliefs while pursuing higher education.
This resolution calls on college administrators to condemn antisemitism, protect Jewish speakers and students from intimidation or exclusion based on their religion or ethnicity, ensure equal opportunities for Jewish students, and maintain their security on campus. It affirms the right of all Americans to exercise religious and cultural beliefs while in higher education.
This non-binding resolution sets expectations for how universities should handle antisemitism complaints. While the language focuses on equal treatment and security, it does not specify whether it endorses particular definitions of antisemitism (such as the IHRA definition) that can classify certain forms of Israel criticism as antisemitic — a distinction that affects which student speech and activism campus policies might restrict.
