Ivy League institutions Columbia University and Yale, where anti-Israel protests have sparked fears for the safety of Jewish students, charge a hefty amount for tuition.
Anti-Israel protests with instances of antisemitic harassment by demonstrators on college campuses have driven multiple institutions of higher education to move classes online out of fear for the safety of Jewish students – many of whom are paying hefty tuition fees to attend.
For comparison, the average sticker price for tuition and fees alone at private U.S. colleges was $42,162 this school year, according to data from U.S. News and World Reports. The outlet reported the average price paid for in-state tuition and fees at public colleges is $10,662. Regardless of the price tag, anti-Israel demonstrations have now cropped up across the nation and appear to be spreading.
