In a recent push for increased vigilance at higher education institutions, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has emphasized the importance of fighting antisemitism on the state’s college and university campuses. This announcement comes as the October 7 anniversary of the terrorist attack in Israel nears, alongside the escalation of tensions in Gaza. In a letter issued to the institutions, the Governor reiterated a zero-tolerance policy for acts of antisemitism, advocating for a safe educational environment for Jewish students, staff, and faculty, as mentioned on the Office of the Texas Governor official website.
