The president of Stanford University issued an apology this week for school policies that intentionally limited Jewish student admissions in the 1950s and dismissed or denied concerns about its anti-Semitic practices for years.
The university task force investigation was launched after a 2021 blog post detailed intentions and actions by the university’s then top admissions leader to limit Jewish enrollment.,” by Charles Petersen, a historian at Cornell University, contained pieces of archival evidence, including a damning 1953 university memo written to Stanford President Wallace Sterling by Frederic Glover, his assistant. The memo described then-Director of Admissions Rixford K.
According to the committee, which examined the Office of the Registrar records, Snyder stopped recruiting students from both schools and a decline in admissions followed: Between 1949 and 1952, Stanford enrolled 67 students from Beverly Hills High School and 20 students from Fairfax. From 1952 to 1955, Stanford enrolled 13 students from Beverly Hills High and one from Fairfax.
The task force was unable to confirm whether then-President Sterling read the 1953 memo, but it stated that at least three other top officials, including the university provost, did. The university’s actions had long-lasting repercussions, including dissuading Jewish students from applying to Stanford, the president and the report said.
