Rabbi Aron Heir Free Speech on University & College Campuses

The Simon Wiesenthal Center is often the first to speak out on numerous issues that are germane to the world at large. The aim of the Campus Outreach division is to do this "in miniature" at colleges and universities by teaching about and confronting anti-semitism, hate and terrorism, promoting human rights and dignity, standing with Israel, and celebrating diversity and tolerance. Our mission is to foster an awareness of contemporary human rights and ethic issues. We want to encourage participation in exploring Jewish spirit, culture and identity as human, personal and national character. We aim to educate about social justice, to learn to know who we are and what we stand for and how to navigate life fully and competently.
