Hoffman Hebrew Fund at the Jewish Federation of Cleveland am appalled by the cowardly malice the actions on our campus represent. Those who engage in such conduct should remember that it not only is contrary to our values, but also university policies. Violators will face discipline.”

Jared Isaacson, executive director of Cleveland Hillel at CWRU, was pleased with the swift action of the university.

and recently just discovered,” he said. “The university responded really quickly and as far as I’m concerned, they were strong in their support for any students who would be affected by this. But more particular, they were very strong in their aggressive stance in this being a totally unacceptable aspect of things happening on campus.”

CWRU President Barbara R. Snyder declined through a spokesperson to provide additional comment when contacted by the Cleveland Jewish News.
