Here Is Why We Sanctioned Hillel At The New School
Two years after University administrators and state actors destroyed the Gaza Solidarity Encampments, expelled and deported students, and smeared anyone protesting against the genocidal Zionist state and in support of a liberated Palestine, the student movement is developing new tactics. One of these tactics involves challenging, exposing, and removing Hillel from our campuses. The New School, where I was chair of the Student Senate, was the first example. It should not be the last.
In May 2026, the New School’s Student Senate sanctioned its chapter of Hillel, a Zionist organization that operates on 850 campuses worldwide, by designating them “Not in Good Standing,” suspending all funding and collaboration.
