Alums for Campus Fairness (ACF) is outraged and appalled by the recent antisemitic incident at Rutgers University where brothers of Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity (AEPi) were victims of harassment due to their Jewish identity. ACF will not stand by as Jewish students at our alma mater are targeted.

According to AEPi, members of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) gathered in front of the AEPi house following a rally and chanted and encouraged violence.

ACF calls on the Administration and the Rutgers University Police Department to take necessary and appropriate action moving forward that ensures the safety of the campus Jewish community.

We ask that our supporters and supporters of the Rutgers Jewish community reach out and show support to AEPi. ACF would like to open a line of support for the students, to help us start a chapter at Rutgers, please join us here.
