S 3718 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Permits Secretary of Higher Education to appoint antisemitism monitor to any institution of higher education; requires institution to implement recommendations of antisemitism monitor.

S 3718 authorizes New Jersey's Secretary of Higher Education to appoint an antisemitism monitor at any public institution of higher education. The monitor reviews campus policies protecting Jewish students/staff, establishes anonymous reporting procedures for antisemitism incidents, and issues quarterly reports with recommendations to the institution and legislature. Institutions must implement the monitor's recommendations and provide necessary support, with non-compliance risking reduced state funding or loss of student aid eligibility. The bill defines antisemitism using the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's 2016 working definition.
