"The climate on campus has changed. Constituents from my own college have told me to abstain because of my Jewish agenda. So I am being personally discriminated against," Bernstein said.
"How did you take that?" "I was incredibly offended. It's blatant Anti-Semitism," UC Santa Cruz Student Daniel Bernstein said.
"I'm not shocked that it happened. I'm shocked that it happened directly to me, but you know I'm dealing with it the best way I can." Bernstein added.
The UC Santa Cruz Administration won't confirm or deny whether or not they're conducting an investigation into the offending text.
