Social
Democrats,
"The Social Democrats, USA (SD/USA) has its political
roots in the Socialist Party. Its philosophical
forefather was the intellectual Trotskyite, Max
Shactman. Shactman, initially a Communist,
became increasingly disenchanted with the actions of the
Soviet Union under Stalin and developed a new genre of
antiStalinist leftists. This group joined the Socialist
party of Eugene Debs and Norman Thomas in the 1960s. (2)
It was in this period that the SD/USA made its
commitment to, and its first inroads into the organized
labor movement. In 1972, the Socialist Party split into
two factions; the left led by Michael Harrington and the
right or conservative wing led by Tom
Kahn,
Rachelle Horowitz, and Carl Gershman.
(2) The latter became the SD/USA."

Rosenthal, former political director of the

who once rubbed elbows with senators and even visited

crime led to a very public resignation from his
high-profile ACGA role. But the organization did not
divorce itself of Goldberg entirely: he now
serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the ACGA-linked
American Corn Growers Foundation, where he remains in

UNIVERSITIES:
(Current or recent)
"Ronald Ehrenberg, the Irving M. Ives Professor
of Industrial and Labor Relations and vice president for
academic programs, planning and budgeting, drew mainly
from his personal experiences and his background as a
Jew to demonstrate the continued need for affirmative
action programs ... . Six
out
of eight Ivy League universities in recent years
have had Jewish presidents, Ehrenberg said."
“It’s fascinating,” observed President James O.
Freedman in the February 11 Los Angeles Times,
“that there was not a Jewish president of a major
university — with one or two exceptions — until about 15
years ago. And then all of a sudden — without notice — there are
Jewish presidents now at dozens of major institutions.”
Among all those presidents, however, Freedman remains
among the most outspoken on Jewish issues in higher
education. Through a series of public comments, notably
his 1990 attack on the Dartmouth Review, Freedman
has repeatedly used his ethnicity to make a name for
himself in academic circles. The Los Angeles Times
interview concerned his comments at the opening of the Roth
Center for Jewish Life, in which he exposed
Dartmouth’s history of anti-Semitism."
Tufts University,
"Lawrence S. Bacow, recently installed as
president of Tufts University, likes to say that the naming
of a Jewish college president is hardly newsworthy
anymore. After all, MIT named Jerry Weisner in
1970, and since then Jewish presidents have reigned at
prestigious institutions from Dartmouth to Harvard, Penn
to Princeton ... And, the new Tufts head boasts, every
door of the President's mansion on the Medford campus
now hosts a mezzuzah, while the kitchen has been
koshered for his family's use. Bacow's strong
commitment to Judaism and the Jewish community is clear
from his positions as a director of the Jewish Community
Housing for the Elderly and a trustee of Hebrew College,
and his wife's role as a trustee of Temple Emmanuel in
Newton. He believes it is important for American Jews to
'speak up on behalf of Israel and to show their support
visibly,' yet he understands the complexities of the
situation."
Harvard University,
President: Lawrence Summers (replaced Neil
Rudenstine)
"I speak with you today not as President of the

am Jewish, identified but hardly devout."

RELIGIOUS
(Note: a pillar of
"interfaith" Jewish-Christian organizations tends to
be the propagandizing of Christian sensitization to
Jewish concerns about "anti-Semitism" (underscoring
alleged Christian blame for the "Holocaust"), and
revision of historical Christian religious texts to
accommodate Jewish demands. These types of
organizations are typically constructed towards
Christian sympathy of Jewish hostility to
Christianity. Note that at least two organization
directors are rabbis at Christian colleges -- a
situation that is reciprocally (read: "priest")
unthinkable at a Jewish center of higher learning.
Interfaith "dialogue" with Jewry is essentially
Christian CONCESSION to Jewish perspective, never
the other way around.)
