Good point. My son doesn’t wear a kippah and he’s not religious but he is proudly Jewish and I’d expect him to go to a Hillel from time to time and he observes the high holidays by fasting and going to shul, etc. We noticed on the Brandeis study that many of the schools with the least measured antisemitism are in the south (I’m including the Florida schools which have been fantastic as I’m sure everyone is aware). Columbia which is one of the worst also has one of the highest Jewish percentage populations (a separate thread could be started on why this is the case).
