The DGSC statement clarifies, "DGSC does not allow its resources or the student fees it manages to be used in connection with products or services that support or benefit from the US-backed Israeli occupation of Palestine." This illustrates a strict policy against any association with Israeli products, indicating a strong stance that aims to prevent funds from inadvertently supporting actions seen as unjust by its student body.
Critics argue the decision is discriminatory, with former board member Jeffrey Wiesenfeld stating, "It's an absolute violation. You can't have Jewish students pay for fees used for prejudicial activity against them," emphasizing how the boycott could perpetuate antisemitism among the student population and discriminate against those who support Israel.
