His statement accidentally pits marginalized populations against each other which is something that should never be allowed. Comparing the collective experiences of Jewish people versus students of color is not effective nor should it be. All cultures have different perceptions of their environment and, like you said, Muhlenberg has an over representation of Jewish people whereas that is not the case for students of color.

This blog was extremely thoughtful and your analysis of Presidnt William’s statement hits all angles. Your perspective is unique and powerful, given that you are apart of the Jewish population on campus. Awesome post.
