Major Law Firms Issue Ultimatum To Law Schools Over Recent Protests: ‘Stop Producing Anti-Semites’ | Eastern North Carolina Now

    A number of major law firms issued a letter to law schools across the United States, warning them that students involved in radical protests - specifically those who have gotten involved in anti-Semitic protests - are likely to face an uphill battle when they graduate and search for jobs.

    The New York Times published the letter along with an article on Tuesday, noting that two dozen Wall Street firms had already signed on to the call for "top law schools to crack down on discrimination and harassment amid an escalation in incidents targeting Jewish students."

    "Some of the largest law firms in the country have a message for the deans of law schools who have tolerated anti-semitic activities conducted by their students," Joel Petlin posted, sharing a photo of the letter on X. "If you want your graduates to get good jobs in our law firms, stop producing Antisemites."

    "Over the last several weeks, we have been alarmed at reports of anti-Semitic harassment, vandalism and assaults on college campuses, including rallies calling for the death of Jews and the elimination of the State of Israel. Such anti-Semitic activities would not be tolerated at any of our firms," the letter read in part. "We also would not tolerate outside groups engaging in acts of harassment and threats of violence, as has also been occurring on many of your campuses."

    The law firms went on to argue that, as institutes of higher learning, law schools had a responsibility to educate students in an environment where they were encouraged to engage civilly with those whose opinions and views were different than their own.

    "As employers who recruit from each of your law schools, we look to you to ensure your students who hope to join our firms after graduation are prepared to be an active part of workplace communities that have zero tolerance policies for any form of discrimination or harassment, much less the kind that has been taking place on some law school campuses," the letter continued.

    At least one of the undersigned firms, Davis Polk & Wardwell, has already rescinded job offers to students who signed on to letters blaming Israel for the October 7 attacks - when Hamas terrorists breached the border from Gaza and killed more than 1,400 Israelis, most of them civilians.
