As students head back to campus, universities are stepping into a storm of debates over antisemitism, safety, and free speech. The Trump administration has stepped up federal intervention — pulling funding, opening investigations, and demanding major policy changes at schools accused of failing to protect Jewish students.

But are these measures working? Are they creating a safer environment, or simply shifting the battleground to new fronts?

In this episode, Alyza Lewin, president of the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law, joins host Aviva to examine the administration’s strategy, explore how universities are reacting, and discuss what this means for Jewish students in the year ahead.
