Jon Lovitz, an actor and comedian, has blasted individuals at Columbia University and other colleges for blocking Israeli classmates from attending school.
” You’re supposed to be wise”, the Saturday Night Live alum posted on X this year. You blame the Israeli government’s activities on your 18-year-old American colleagues, you say?  , What the devil are you being taught? Consider naturally and quit being animal &, being used by your faculty”.
To the kids at @Columbia, and any other students at universities across the United States,
blocking Jewish students from entering the building to attend school:You’re supposed to be bright. You blame your 18-year-old colleagues in the US for the government’s steps…

Lovitz’s appointment comes amid the most recent wave of virulently anti-Israel demonstrations on prestigious college campuses across the nation. As protesters are attempting to target their Jewish classmates by preventing them from attending classes, the protests have taken on  , explicitly anti-semitic shades on some campuses.

The scenario has devolved to quite a significant amount that a priest at Columbia University recently advised Jewish students to be home.
In support of the anti-Israel protest, Columbia faculty walked off the work earlier this year. The school has forced individuals to switch to cross training for the majority of the quarter, which has resulted in needs for tuition reimbursement.
