Jews remain the number one victims of religiously-motivated hate crimes in the U.S., according to FBI hate crime data reported every year.

Most disturbing is what Jewish Voices on Campus documented on video: widespread hatred and violence committed against Jews at U.S. college campuses.

According to the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s www.JewHatredOnCampus.org, the ten most dangerous American college campuses for Jewish students in 2015 were:

• Columbia University, New York City (New York’s largest employer)
• Cornell University, Ithaca N.Y.
• George Mason University, Fairfax, VA
• Loyola University, Chicago, IL
• Portland State University, Portland, OR
• San Diego State University, San Diego, CA
• San Francisco State University, San Francisco, CA
• Temple University, Philadelphia, PA

JewHatredOnCampus.org no longer appears to be a project of the Freedom Center. More information about Jew hatred in the U.S. is documented by Stopthejewhatredoncampus.org, the Canary Mission, IsraPundit, and Pamela Geller, among others.
