  1. Purpose and Scope of the Rankings
    • Disclaimer:
      The AZF Barometer is a tool to measure the presence and intensity of anti-Zionist faculty activity on U.S. college campuses. It does not account for other negative factors, such as the intensity of anti-Zionist student activity, nor does it account for the overall quality of Jewish campus life, the presence of Jewish organizations, or other positive factors. Prospective students and families should use this tool as part of a broader evaluation and consult additional resources for a deeper understanding.
  1. Neutrality of the Data
    • Disclaimer:
      The rankings are based solely on publicly available data and do not reflect an endorsement of any political or ideological position by the AZF Barometer or its creators. The tool is designed to inform and support efforts to ensure academic freedom and protect students from faculty misuse of their positions to promote antisemitism.
  1. Limitations of the Data
    • Disclaimer:
      While every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, the data used in the AZF Barometer represents a snapshot in time. Rankings are updated annually and may not capture real-time changes on campuses. Users are encouraged to consult the most current data available.
  1. No Implications About All or Even Most Faculty
    • Disclaimer:
      A campus’s ranking on the AZF Barometer does not imply that all or even most faculty members at that institution are engaged in anti-Zionist activity. The rankings reflect aggregate levels of activity based on publicly available information.
  1. Appropriate Use of the Rankings
    • Disclaimer:
      The AZF Barometer is intended for informational and advocacy purposes. It is not designed to encourage boycotts of any institution or to stigmatize individuals. Users are encouraged to focus on constructive engagement, such as advocating for balanced academic policies and inclusive campus environments.
  1. No Liability
    • Disclaimer:
      The AZF Barometer and its creators are not liable for any decisions, actions, or outcomes resulting from the use of these rankings. Users are encouraged to consult multiple sources and exercise independent judgment when interpreting the data.
  1. Encouragement for Balanced Perspectives
    • Disclaimer:
      The AZF Barometer is one tool among many to understand complex campus dynamics. Users should also explore resources that highlight the positive aspects of Jewish life on campus, such as those provided by Hillel International and other Jewish community organizations.
