Steve Horn admits he was drawn to bringing in a Palestinian speaker to a campus-based celebration of Israel in part because he "didn't want to be part of propaganda." Horn, a UW-Madison junior majoring in political science and legal studies, is a member of Kavanah, a liberal-leaning student group that operates under the auspices of the UW's Hillel Foundation. Hillel, serving the campus Jewish community, sponsored a weeklong series of events in mid-April to celebrate Israel's independence; Horn was a member of the event's planning committee.
