    1. The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights.
    2. It makes clear that the intention is not to work with us to address antisemitism in a cooperative and constructive manner.

    4. No government – regardless of which party is in power – should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.
