ETF 'COMPLIANCE Editor's Letter from page 5 speakers and programs that demonize Jews and Israel. Yes, there's a fine line between anti- Israel chants protected by free speech and anti-Semitic canards that strike fear in Jewish students and impair their ability to join in and benefit from campus life. But what's the recourse in those rare instances when Jewish students are subjected to high- octane anti-Semitism? So it's important that the law itself clearly give Jewish students redress. That's what an amendment of Title VI would accomplish. `Are you cleaning the entire system?' the entir rpm roof-to • to cook- syst erisuring'tha comp e d'' service and compliance achieved. BELFOR.

TM Staying Ahead The walls aren't crashing in for Jewish students. Says Tuchman: "Generally speaking, they are doing well on their campuses and Jewish life is flourish- ing." But to let down our guard and think a little dose of anti-Semitism isn't that bad is just plain foolish. The Education Department under- scores that just disciplining anti- Semitic bigots may not change a hos- tile climate for Jewish students. Other suggested remedial steps include counseling offenders, reaf- firming school anti-discrimination policies, publicizing how students can report harassment, training instruc- tors to recognize anti-Semitic acts and creating a series of programs to teach students about the history and dan- gers of anti-Semitism. Laudably, the OCR says to not only end harassment, but also prevent its recurrence, singled-out schools must reject silence and publicly label the incidents as anti-Semitic. Ultimately, Jewish students who are being harassed, intimidated or discriminated against at their schools — and some are — should have the same legal recourse that other ethnic and racial groups have since enact- ment of Title VI in 1964. The combined effect of the newly clarified impact of Title VI and the explicit protections afforded by the Specter-Sherman bill would provide precisely that. ❑ Susan Tuchman will speak at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 8, at Temple Beth El, northwest corner of 14 Mile and Telegraph, Bloomfield Township, as part of a program cosponsored by the ZOA, Stand WithUs-Michigan and the temple's Israel Chal Committee.
