In this FrontPage Magazine article, Daniel Greenfield argues that the sharp decline in reported campus antisemitism came from federal pressure under the Trump administration rather than from the ADL’s preferred institutional training and dialogue approach.
- The article cites ADL data showing that antisemitic incidents on college and university campuses dropped 66%, from 1,694 to 583 incidents.
- It also notes that antisemitic incidents tied to anti-Israel protests and encampments reportedly fell 83%.
- Greenfield argues that the broader national picture still worsened, with ADL reporting 6,274 incidents of antisemitic harassment, vandalism, and assault in 2025.
- The author credits the Trump administration’s confrontational approach, including civil-rights scrutiny, congressional pressure, financial consequences, settlements, and resignations.
- Rep. Elise Stefanik, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, and Senior Counselor Leo Terrell are presented as key figures in increasing pressure on university leaders.
- Greenfield criticizes the ADL for allegedly trying to take credit for the campus decline while relying on “bias training” and institutional cooperation that he says failed to protect Jewish students.
- UCLA is used as a case study, with the article questioning whether ADL praise or settlement money has translated into real protection for Jewish students and faculty.
- The central argument is that college administrators responded only when antisemitism became a financial, legal, and career risk for their institutions.
- Greenfield concludes that accountability and pressure work, while appeasement, training sessions, and soft institutional dialogue do not.
