Yale Initiative for the Interdisciplinary Study of Antisemitism

David Harris, Executive Director of the American Jewish Committee, said the Initiative's termination would "create a very regrettable void."

On June 20, 2011, less than three weeks after Yale said YIISA would be closed, Yale's provost Peter Salovey announced the creation of a new program for the study of antisemitism named the "Yale Program for the Study of Anti-Semitism" (YPSA).

At the time, it was the fourth university center for antisemitism to be established, following centers at the Technical University of Berlin, and Hebrew University and Tel Aviv University in Israel.
