Washington, D.C. — The Louis D. Brandeis Center Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law announced this afternoon that it has brought on two new Communications and Development Interns and one Law Clerk. The move comes as the Washington, D.C.-based national civil rights organization strengthens its response to Anti-Semitism on college campuses throughout the country.

LDB President Kenneth L. Marcus welcomed Steven Isaacson, Mandy Jiang, and Kaitlyn Boyle to the team. He says, “Steven, Mandy, and Kaitlyn are excellent summer additions to the Louis D. Brandeis Center. We are excited to see them with us and delighted by the energy and enthusiasm that they bring with them. All three have hit the ground running.” The additions to the Brandeis Center come at a time when several campuses, including UCLA and Vassar, are finding themselves in the midst of the Anti-Semitism debate.

Kaitlyn Boyle received her B.A. in History from the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. and just finished her second year at Northeastern University School of Law in Boston. She has previously interned for Judge Schwartz on the Federal Appeals Court for the Third Circuit and at the American Council on Education. Before going to law school, she taught high school English for two years as a part of teacher For America in Charlotte, NC.

Mandy Jiang is a rising second-year M.P.A. graduate student at the University of Southern California, specializing in non-profit management. While an undergraduate at the University of California at Santa Barbara, she majored in Sociology. She hopes to work in the international development and humanitarian sector upon her graduation.

Steven Isaacson is a rising sophomore at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. If all goes according to plan, he will major in Political Science and minor in Women’s and Gender Studies. He says, “Clark, while there is still much work to do, is an example for which other schools should follow when it comes to inviting open and honest dialogue when it comes to Israel-related issues.”
