Observer
Antisemitism Is Abhorrent
This past week we witnessed a massive failure by presidents of leading institutions of higher education to articulate a moral outlook. In testimony before a Congressional Committee on the subject of antisemitism, one after another they couldn’t give an unambiguous answer
to New York Representative Elise Stefanik's yes/no question during the hearing on whether "calling for the genocide of Jews" violated the schools' codes of conduct.
These same University Presidents have since “walked back” their evasive remarks, but there are still calls from wealthy donors for them to be fired or resign like University of Pennsylvania’s President Elizabeth Magill did on Saturday.

Nutcracker Sweet
One plays...one pays and one just walks aways.
This is a pure reflection shot off the marble ceiling on the west side of the terminal as a woman plays Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker suite on her violin and wooden banister.
Time 10am.
