Dear President Jones and Dean Mitzel,
We received your letter by accident. It was sent to one of us after it
was sent off to the American Studies Association (ASA). No announcement
was made to the faculty prior to the letter going out, and so no
discussion was permitted. The letter–which is below–condemns the ASA for
its resolution on Israel. It is also found on the website of the
Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, as part
of a campaign by that body to undermine the ASA.
Many of us who are signing this letter are members of the ASA, proudly
so, and several of us voted on behalf of that resolution that you chose
to condemn in your letter. We believe that your letter is wrong-headed
for several reasons.
