My friend started AE SOM this year. From what I've heard from her, it is quite Jewish. The campus observes all of the Jewish holidays and you will be surrounded by a lot of Jewish culture. In fact, my friend (who is Chinese-American) is staying temporarily with an orthodox Jewish couple. Nevertheless, there are quite a few non-Jewish students who attend AE. I don't think you will have problems being a non-jewish person or even an arab/muslim student at AE. Jewish people in New York tend to be politically and religiously active. If that doesn't bother you, then you should be able to be happy and get a good education there.


btw, I'm sorry that I do not have any exact % numbers. i'm sure that's what you wanted, but I couldn't resist throwing in my .02.

best of luck.

umm..........common sense says jews are in the majority here. but, is that really surprising considering jews run everything in our country, dr. rosenberg?

 

[UseUrHeadFred]

That makes perfect sense! Although the tuition at Einstein is high, and despite the fact that their financial aid is mediocre at best, they still end up having the lowest student indebtedness of any private school!

(I made this up. It's not true.)

(Yes, I am a jew.)

if you are not jewish, especially if you're arab (christian or muslim), then you might have a difficult time obtaining recs in your 3'd and 4th year from the jewish doctors. also, there will be jewish cliques and you might be excluded. ask yourself: do you wanna go through this for 4 years?

as far as the notion that "jews run everything in the country", well, that is true; however, no country should allow a minority of people to control its foreign policy, its media and academics. therefore, instead of making these remarks, concerned citizens (especially those who know how the recent war was cooked by mr. pearl and mr. wolfowitz, along with a whole bunch of New York City jews) should do more than just talk: they should work hard and try to advance in their fields to attain the same influence that jews have had in the U.S for a long time. i mean it's ridiculous that in the country of free speach, harvard students cannot demonstrate peacefully and we cannot say in public that Israel has been violating international law and costing the american tax payer a lot of money. Jewish politicians and pundits cooked the Iraq war and then sent blond and black christians to fight it and suffer random death in it while their kids went to medical and law schools. take home message is: dont just talk about it; do something. it's a shame that in a country of 300,000000 citizens, only a few NYC Zip codes have influence. it 's a shame on the rest of us; not on the jews!!!

oh by the way, Albert Einstein was jewish; but he was a fine, liberal and an ethical man, and a truely altruistic socialist. jews of new york city, and their Ayn Rand philosophy, are anything but altruistic and liberal (although they claim to be and promote themselves as such). if Albert Einstein or Abba Eban were alive, they would kill themselves. oh no! i take this back, NYC jews themselves will kill them; after all, it was a jew who killed Yishak Rabin. they should change the name of the schools to :

Daniel Pipes school of medicine of yeshiva university
or
Natanyahu school of medicine of Israel university (screw american interests)

 

[UseUrHeadFred]

Wow. What a nut.

Oviously, all Jews are prejudiced bastards. You accuse them of discriminating against groups when you are yourself discriminating against Jews through your generalizations.

And, equally obviously, the Jews don't control America. It's those bastards down in Area 51. Or the moon men. Any faceless straw man who we can pin the blame on!

And, we all know that if Harvard students peacefully demonstrate, they'll be shot dead right there on the street. Those guys had better keep their mouths shut.

And, of course, since there are no Jews in the military, it's impossible for them to die during war. That's what Christians are for.

And, finally, it is only natural that being a fine, ethical man is equivalent to being a liberal socialist.

We're just going to rename it "Big Brother College of Medicine."

 

[JattMed]

Wow........you guys gotta settle down.
All the dude asked was to see how many jewish people are in AE SOM.
Jews like all people are diverse.
There are pricks and nice ones.

wow, what an anti-semite. the same anti-semitic accusations that have been leveled against jews for generations. "jews control everything", "jews have a hand in the death of our christian kids", etc.

I have to say that as a Jew, a liberal, and a graduate of Harvard, this has been one of the most baseless, offensive, and ignorant attempts at rhetoric I have seen on a legitimate message board in quite some time. It's surprising and I assumed those associated with medicine would maintain moral and intellectual high-ground in discourse, but I guess under the anonymity of the Internet, even medicine will put forth its bigots.

To return to the subject of AECOM, although I am not a student there, I do have many friends who attend and love it. It does have a significant Jewish population, but not in total, and most of the Jews who attend the institution are more closely aligned with their secular peers rather than their traditional peers (unlike the undergraduate institution with which AECOM is affiliated). As Jews come in many shapes and colors, I don't think any student (yes, and even especially an Arab or Muslim) need worry about discrimination. Were a professor or clinician to demonstrate such bigotry (as could happen at any school), a student would find an extensive support system of peers and administrators to rally in their defense.

Did anyone answer the OPs question yet???

georgebush24 and capricorn are violating TOS... pretty clear it's racist speech.

As an actual Einstein 3rd year, who by the way is not jewish, I will address what has been brought up, and will refrain from patronizing the obviously misguided poster earlier. AECOM has a large jewish population, possibly even nearing around 40%, but the orthodox community may make up only about 15%, so with a class of 180, I believe there are around 20 orthodox in my class. Either way, numbers aside I will say from my experience there is really no reason to feel intimitated or put off by the jewish affiliation of the school. There is absolutely no reason to think, as a previous poster has said that you will have trouble getting letters of rec or anything else if you are arab/muslim. Einstein has one of the most liberal faculty you could have for a profession that is traditionally fairly conservative. If you are jewish, then there is an amazing community of which you may be part of, but if you are not, by no means do you feel left out. Either way, PM me if you are interested in more info. cheers.

I don't remember New York being a very republican state when I lived there for 4 years. So, let me get this straight... You claim that all of these liberal democrat Jews swayed a republican president, congress, and senate to vote for the war? Thats quite a leap.

As for AECOM, sure there's plenty of Jews. AECOM was founded so that Jews could finally go to medical school since bigots like the few posters above wouldn't take them at the blue blood schools. Is most of the class Jewish though? Probably not even close. Location aside, Einstein is a great place for anyone.

when will your naive arse realize that one of the main reasons you're at Harvard is because you're jewish? stop trying to put on a cultured facade because that's what the crap you wrote in the first paragraph is. ive noticed such a superiority complex with jewish people in my time at college(not that it really matter but its a top 10). if you jews want to weasel your way into positions of authority(the gate-keepers of medical school/residency) and blatantly favor fellow jews once in that position, then there's not much I can do about it. But what I will do is never treat a Jewish patient let alone practice with a Jewish doctor.

I agree 100%. AECOM has an impressive history of accepting African-American and Hispanic medical students - years before most medical schools began doing so. This would have never been true if there was some "great Jewish conspiracy."
