On Recent Events at Rutgers - New Brunswick
The unrest at Rutgers and on college campuses across the country since October 7 has been a cause of great distress and concern at the Bildner Center and in the Department of Jewish Studies. As a major hub of Jewish life and learning on campus and for the community, we seek to combat the extreme polarization and divisiveness that can lead to violence against both Jews and Muslims.

Statement on the October 7, 2023 attack on Israel
The Allen and Joan Bildner Center for the Study of Jewish Life unequivocally condemns the brutal attack on Israel by Hamas, a state-like terrorist militia movement, from Gaza. Hamas
has murdered more than 1,200 people, deliberately targeting civilians, including hundreds of young people at a music festival, and has abducted more than 150 people
(the elderly, women, and children). Let there be no mistake: the attack is a terrorist attack, using terrorist methods to which all countries would legitimately respond.
We stand in support of Israel and hope for the safe return of the hostages and an end to the violence.
