Our hearts are with SLO Hillel, Chabad on Campus, and Mustangs United for Israel this week, as masked agitators tried to derail a program featuring two Israeli speakers. The Cal Poly Jewish student community faced disruption but did not back down.

Moments like these are a reminder of how important it is for our broader Jewish community to show up for our students. Keep an eye out as we feature Jewish student leaders in upcoming newsletters.

👉 Cal Poly alumni, parents, students, and community members: Sign the petition calling on President Armstrong to condemn the disruption, follow through on the violations Cal Poly’s own officers identified, and publicly affirm the university’s support for Jewish students. https://www.campusfairness.org/action/?calpoly
