(THE COLLEGE FIX) -- A new University of Pennsylvania Law School student group wants school-sponsored trips to Israel canceled due to the country’s alleged human rights abuses.
Penn Law Students for Justice in Palestine also claims one particular trip, itrek, essentially brainwashes students into becoming pro-Israel.
According to a July 2 statement from the group, itrek was founded by a former official of the Israeli government, gets funding from that government and “targets its programming at students at elite law, business, and policy schools” — so students will “carry their [favorable] impressions forward into their professional and personal lives.”
