Our Campus United
Step-by-step playbooks for specific campus situations, written by students and checked by legal and academic experts — pre-written emails to professors, talking points, and BDS counterarguments, so you are not drafting from scratch at the worst moment.
Our Campus United gives students step-by-step playbooks, written by students and vetted by legal and academic experts, for handling antisemitism on campus.
- No funding and no chapters — free, ready-to-use playbooks instead
- Pre-written emails to professors for specific classroom antisemitism scenarios
- A BDS counterargument toolkit and social-media assets you can send out the same day

How to get started
- Nothing to apply for — go straight to the guide matching your situation
- Document the incident first; every guide depends on specifics like dates, wording, and witnesses
- Use StandWithUs or ADL's legal line when the situation needs direct intervention rather than a template
Who can use it
- Free and public — usable by any student or campus group, no membership required
- No funding, no chapters, and no direct legal representation
- A project of the Calanet Foundation, produced in partnership with StandWithUs
What they offer

- ResourceBDS counterargument toolkit What BDS is, its agenda, counterarguments, academic boycotts, and how to handle referenda and student government resolutions.
- ResourceCampaign kit Press release templates, an email campaign kit, and a petition framework for pushing an administration or board of trustees to act.
- ResourceLegalities and bibliography Plain guidance on your legal footing, plus a sourced bibliography and historical context for arguments you will actually have.
