On September 19, ACTA sent a letter to Board of Trustees of Sarah Lawrence College in response to a student group’s efforts in cancelling Professor Samuel Abrams, a staunch supporter of the State of Israel. This student group organized boycotts of Professor Abrams classes by intimidating students and by spreading misinformation about the integrity of Professor Abrams. In the letter, ACTA urged leadership to condemn the group’s efforts in intimidating students and encouraged the board to uphold school policies which protect students and faculty on campus.
