Gpo Helps U.S. Commission On Civil Rights To Stop Hate On College Campuses

The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (USCCR) turned to the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) for assistance in designing a poster and a postcard for a campaign to end anti-Semitism on college campuses. USCCR’s 2006 report, Campus Anti-Semitism, reported an increase in anti-Semitic vandalism, physical intimidation and racial slurs on college campuses across the country. To help turn the tide against these hateful acts, USCCR is launching a public education campaign to end campus anti-Semitism. The core of the Commission’s campaign is a Web site. This vehicle will educate students and others about the nature of anti-Semitism, urge victims to report incidents to authorities and identify sources of help. GPO employees designed a poster and a postcard, ensured print quality, and contributed to the campaign Web site. The poster and postcard will be distributed to students and administrators across the country.

The Commission will roll out its campaign on April 11, 2007 at 1:00 pm and will launch the campaign Web site http://www.usccr.gov/campusanti-semitism.html at its monthly meeting on April 13, 2007. The media is invited to attend both events which will take place at: USCCR Headquarters: 624 Ninth Street, NW Washington, D.C. 20425

“That these incidents are even happening on our nation’s campuses is a huge step back in the fight against hate,” said Kenneth L. Marcus, Staff Director, of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. “We are pleased with the help of the U.S. Government Printing Office in creating the tools to assist us to educate students about their rights and protections against anti-Semitic behavior.” Read more at gpo.gov.
