A joint program between Bard College and Al-Quds University, the first collaboration ever between a Palestinian and an American college to offer a dual-degree program, has opened in Abu Dis, a village on the outskirts of East Jerusalem. The four-year program, first reported in February by The Chronicle, will lead to dual bachelor’s degrees for 60 students in 10 majors.





I am astounded that the Chronicle’s comments reviewer would permit the ignorance, hatred and vitriol expressed by mart7624 to be posted.Then again, I shouldn’t be astounded since our academic communities seem to be degrading to little more than ignorance, hatred, and vitriol, particularly when the Middle East is the topic of discussion.
Whatever American students study at Al Quds, I trust they will learn to spell better than the dimwit who posted under the name mart7624.
