Anti-Semitism among French university students, hitherto unknown in modern France, is reported today from the university town of Tours. The students’ general organization decided to tax the so-called foreigners one franc for dinner in the students’ hostel. The Jewish students, who number 120 out of 300 members of the association, decided to resign and form a separate union.
This is the direct result of a growing anti-Semitism among the students who for some time now have refused to lend text-books to Jewish students or work with them in the laboratory. Under pressure of the students a number of boarding houses have refused to accept Jewish boarders.
The agitation is led by a professor in the school of medicine, Dr. Bosc, who recently published an article in the Medical Journal demanding that the university bar the “crows of the Danube.”
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
