Lest People Forget Project founder Elizabeth Pipko reacts on 'Jesse Watters Primetime' to pro-Palestinian protests, commentary in the United States.

Amid rising anti-Israel sentiment at Ivy League universities like Harvard and Yale, some Jewish parents are pledging not to send their children there, and commentators like Bill Maher and Ben Shapiro are encouraging it.

This is misguided. The economic considerations of investing in an Ivy League education are valid, as families must weigh the financial burden against potential long-term benefits.

However, boycotting these institutions is counterproductive. If we remove Jewish voices, we will only intensify the one-sided narrative on Israel and Jewish issues. Instead of alleviating the problem, this approach amplifies the echo chamber.

These Ivy League schools, despite their anti-Israel biases, are influential hubs shaping the minds of tomorrow’s leaders. Pro-Israel voices are already underrepresented. So it’s imperative that students attend these universities to offer counter-narratives and personal perspectives that challenge prevailing biases.
