Netanel Crispe, from Danby, Vt., is a 21-year-old junior studying American history at Yale. “I was wearing my black hat; I was very identifiably Jewish,” Crispe said. “Thank God, there was a small sphere at the end of the pole,” she told me. Yale and other universities have been sites of almost continual demonstrations since Hamas massacred and kidnapped Israelis on Oct. 7. That’s just fine, insofar as students have a right to express their views about the war in Gaza — whatever one thinks about those views.
