"Academic Agitators: The Role of Anti-Zionist Faculty Activism in Escalating Antisemitism at the University of California After October 7, 2023," which details a staggering increase of 1100% in anti-Zionist advocacy and activism by UC faculty since Hamas' October 7th attack;

2) Com batting the implementation of academic boycotts of Israel on U.S. campuses; and 3) Efforts to ensure all public and private colleges and universities adopt policies that afford equal and adequate protection for Jewish and Zionist students on their campus. 337356 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 5 0 true 2 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 9 0 true false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false CA Ilan Benjamin 8314599562 227 Dickens Way Santa Cruz CA 95064 Tammi Rossman-Benjamin President 60.00 0.00 X X 90125 0 0 Leila Beckwith Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Richard Cravatts Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Ilan Benjamin Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Gabriel Brahm Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 John Ellis Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Amy Elman Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Charles Geschekter Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Andrew Pessin Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 90125 0 false false false 0 762716 762716 0 14172 14172 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 776888 14172 X 0 0 0 0 90125 81113 4506 4506 0 96751 87076 4838 4837 0 0 12761 11485 638 638 0 0 2000 1800 100 100 0 0 0 134147 134147 0 6392 5753 320 319 0 0 0 9802 8822 490 490 0 0 0 0 637 573 32 32 903 813 45 45 TELEPHONE 4121 3709 206 206 Printing and Publications 1185 1067 59 59 Postage and Shipping 815 734 41 40 PAYROLL PROCESSING 293 264 15 14 0 359932 337356 11290 11286 190090 343511 150000 414172 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3318 2363 1592 955 0 0 0 0 0 341682 758638 0 0 X 341682 758638 341682 758638 341682 758638 416956 X false false false X 347198 362554 335962 364855 762716 2173285 0 0 0 0 347198 362554 335962 364855 762716 2173285 0 0 2173285 5 5 5 17 14172 14204 0 5 5 5 17 14172 14204 0 0 347203 362559 335967 364872 776888 2187489 0.99350 1.00000 0.00650 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 3318 2363 955 955 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 Family relationship.
