Former Boston, New York City–and now Los Angeles–police chief Bill Bratton stepped down from his position as the nation’s “top cop”  in order to work for a private security consulting agency. When Ilana Feldman was appointed interim dean of the Elliott School of International Affairs at George Washington University (GWU) last month, it was an obvious choice. “If, however, the university really considers Feldman indispensable, it ought to provide some reassurance that it will hold the line against BDS. When I commented on Bernstein’s article, he responded with this: “Which part of the pledge that she not only signed, but co-sponsored, did you miss: ‘We pledge not to collaborate on projects and events involving Israeli academic institutions, not to teach at or to attend conferences and other events at such institutions, and not to publish in academic journals based in Israel.’”. But not everyone will agree. Fortunately, his logic is completely wrong. You only spoke of whether someone signing such a pledge was or was not harmful. How could a university employee be fired for a political belief vis-a-vis one state, and only one state–Israel–but nowhere else, on behalf of 100 other countries and identities, is this codified and pursued. 2015 Police Encounters: Security and Surveillance in Gaza under Egyptian Rule. “Ad Hoc Humanity: Peacekeeping and the Limits of International Community in Gaza.” American Anthropologist 112, no. Ilana Feldman is Professor of Anthropology, History, and International Affairs at George Washington University. Legitimate Refugee Lives in Spaces of Long-term Displacement.” Geoforum 66 (2015): 244-252. You know universities and so you know that the model of academic governance you describe is aspirational-deans “should not be autocrats, irrespective of their views of BDS or any other controversial issue.” You also know that even a dean who is not an autocrat has an influence over what faculty faction gains power and influence. The triviality of the dental school example aside, it stands for a position that should make Jonathan uncomfortable at the least.

A culture that is at once moralistic, self-righteous, alienated and in a minority will constantly be tempted to break the rules of political discourse—indeed to conduct its struggles in ways that preclude the use of the word “discourse” —and to gain its ends by deception or outright falsehood…If they do not fully understand the extent to which the “life of the intellect” has become political rather than intellectual, many Americans do have a sense that something has gone very wrong in education.
