Lowell, I watched the congressional hearings where the presidents of (I think) Cornell, Harvard, and MIT were asked if calls for the genocide of Jews was racist or anti-Semitic. The response was "It depends on the context." Then there was me screaming at the TV for someone to ask the question that no one asked. That question is, "In what context is it not racist or anti-Semitic?" I am waiting for the answer to that question.

My father told me a story about applying to Harvard in the early 1940s. He said he was turned down and was told it was because they had their "quota of Jews" for that year. I guess Harvard has returned to its roots of Northeastern elitist, casual anti-Semitism. He went to MIT instead.
