Yale University has created a center for the study of contemporary anti-Semitism. The Yale Initiative for Interdisciplinary Study of Anti-Semitism will provide a place to research anti-Semitism and explore ways to fight it, said Charles Small, director of the center at the prestigious Ivy League college. It remains unclear whether the center will offer a degree. "Anti-Semitism has reemerged internationally in a manner that many leading scholars and policymakers take seriously," Small said. "Because of this, there is a need to establish a high-caliber, interdisciplinary, non-partisan, scholarly institute, so that students and faculty can engage these issues fully."
