Jewish students in Australia give evidence to a Royal Commission describing what they say is rising anti-Semitism on university campuses. Multiple reports state the students recount incidents including Nazi salutes and other forms of harassment. They also say they took steps to avoid identification by concealing their names and religious symbols while on campus. The reports link the testimonies to universities’ efforts to respond to an increasing number of complaints about anti-Semitism. According to both outlets, the accounts are presented to help inform how institutions handle these reports and how complaints are managed. The students’ evidence focuses on personal experiences of intimidation and hostility, and on the difficulties they believe universities face in responding effectively. The reporting does not indicate the commission’s findings or any specific outcomes at the time of publication, but it highlights that anti-Semitism complaints and the broader campus response are central issues before the commission.
