StandWithUs thanks 24 law firms for writing university deans and setting a clear moral example as antisemitism continues to fester nationwide and when many universities fail to uphold their duties to protect their Jewish students. These law firms, listed below, have not only taken a strong stand against antisemitism, but have admirably wielded their influence in the corporate and legal worlds to pressure universities to better instruct their students to refrain from antisemitic and discriminatory behavior, who will soon otherwise be confronted by these firms zero tolerance for discrimination policies.
