Letter to the Editor: MHC faculty call for ceasefire in Gaza
“We, the undersigned faculty members of Mount Holyoke College, join our colleagues from other institutions of higher education to call on college and university leaders to take a stand against state-sanctioned systematic violence against Palestinians. We call on President Danielle R. Holley to urge legislators to implement an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.”
Letter to the Editor: Anti-Zionism does not equal antisemitism
I am writing in response to the front page article titled “Report of antisemitic incidents leads to investigation,” which was written by Emily Tarinelli and published in print on Nov. 10. The article reported on a visiting alum’s finding of the phrase “zionists not welcome here” written on a chalkboard in Clapp Hall, which the alum then reported to President [Danielle R.] Holley on the grounds that it did not make the alum feel welcome and she would “not be back.” I am writing to argue a necessary differing perspective of this event.
