Brandeis University President's Initiative on Antisemitism

Thursday, August 14, 2025

Lansing, MI

Connect with superintendents, principals, district leaders, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion professionals, curriculum directors, and humanities educators from across Michigan for a meaningful professional learning experience.

Building off of Michigan's Holocaust Education mandate and created in alignment with the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) Resolution Against Antisemitism, this professional Day of Learning will give district staff the knowledge and tools they need to ensure an inclusive environment for all students and to address incidents of antisemitism in the 2025-26 school year.

What to Expect:
This symposium marks the beginning of an ongoing educational journey. Our three primary goals are to:

• Foster a brave space for open, curious dialogue about antisemitism and its root causes.
• Deliver impactful professional development for educators and administrators on recognizing and responding to antisemitism.
• Introduce educational resources and individuals who can support schools now and into the future.
