College views posters as antisemitism as activists say they highlight school’s support of Israel’s Gaza offensive

The University of Rochester is investigating after hundreds of “wanted” posters featuring members of the university community were discovered around campus late on Sunday night.

The president of the University of Rochester in New York, Sarah Mangelsdorf, denounced the posters in a statement. Mangelsdorf said that they targeted senior university leaders as well as members of faculty, staff and Board of Trustees, adding that “several of those depicted appear to have been targeted because they are members of our Jewish community”.
