I read with anger that Jewish and Israeli academics in the UK are again making life uncomfortable for Jewish students on campus ("Oxford holds 'Apartheid' week," Jerusalem Post, February 16).

I attended a well-respected British university in the 1990s. Campus life was about studying for my degrees and enjoying the enriched life-style without hostility. Today Prof. Steven Rose and his colleagues are creating hostility by abusing their positions to prejudice opportunities for Jewish students. They are myopic if they believe that their actions will not stir up prejudice and further hatred against Jews both on and off campus.

Will the Palestinian university societies come to the aid of this Jewish professor and his colleagues as this occurs? I doubt it.
