Brandeis University, one of the nation’s most prominent Jewish-founded institutions, has banned the campus chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) over the national group’s “open support” for Hamas.

Brandeis informed the student group on Monday that its recognition status has been revoked, meaning that it will no longer receive university funding, be allowed to conduct activities on campus, or use the university’s name in promoting itself.
