Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. Inset: Rabbi Chaim Boyarsky dances with a student at Chabad.

In today’s day and age, Jews should never have to fear expressing their culture and heritage publicly. But yet, at Carleton University in Ottawa, I believe many still do. Just last week, Carleton released a report stating the findings of its Commission on Inter-Cultural, Inter-Religious and Inter-Racial Relations. The commission, formed two years ago, indicated in its report that Jewish students and faculty members in particular were unsatisfied with the treatment received on campus.
