Buffalo has a critical lesson for Pennsylvania | Opinion White supremacy has become America’s most lethal terrorist threat.

Please attend a candle lighting ceremony in solidarity with Dickinson's Jewish Community Sunday night at 8pm in the Hub. Masks are required.

Earlier today, stickers invoking the likeness of Adolph Hi**er were found defacing the sign outside The Asbell Center for Jewish Life and on a poster for an anti-racist program featured on the Weiss Center for the Arts display board.

Antisemitism and other forms of white supremacy have no home at Dickinson. The Asbell Center for Jewish Life is here for students and community members who need support, and stands with other marginalized communities who are also impacted by white supremacy.

Pictured here and transcribed below is the college's statement on the incidents and ongoing investigation. If you have any information on this matter or those responsible, please contact DPS at 717-245-1349.

To the Dickinson community:

Earlier today, stickers bearing a resemblance to Adolf Hi**er were placed on the Asbell Center for Jewish Life sign as well as the Weiss Center for the Arts display on High Street. This antisemitic act, which we are investigating as a hate crime, was done just days before Jewish members of our community begin to celebrate Hanukkah on Sunday.

We do not know who posted the stickers or if they were members of our community. What we do know is that we do not tolerate hate and we do not tolerate discriminatory acts. Every member of the Dickinson community must work to create a culture that is respectful and inclusive.

If you have any information on this incident, please report it to the Department of Public Safety at 717-245-1349. We regret that this incident occurred, and we are working diligently to find the individuals responsible.

Sincerely,

John E. Jones III ’77, P’11
