Universities were highly influential in shaping public opinion and many of the nation's most prominent university administrators refused to take a principled stand against the Hitler regime. Universities welcomed Nazi officials to campus and participated enthusiastically in student exchange programs with Nazified universities in Germany. American educators helped Nazi Germany improve its image in the West as it intensified its persecution of the Jews and strengthened its armed forces. The study contrasts the significant American grassroots protest against Nazism that emerged as soon as Hitler assumed power with campus quiescence and administrators' frequently harsh treatment of those students and professors who challenged their determination to maintain friendly relations with Nazi Germany. Review: AWESOME - AWESOME Review: Great! This is What History Should Do. - An amazing, maddening, informative and necessary read. Norwood's relentless focus on minute detail and use of relatively obscure sources (most notably college newspaper archives) uncovers an ugly truth about American academia that was largely swept under the rug by the outbreak of World War II. This book is full of forgotten heroes, like Toni Sender and Robert Burke, whose contribution and self-sacrifice is completely unknown to all but the most dogged specialists, and Norwood should be celebrated from bringing their stories to light. It is also full of, if not villains, many Americans who avoided doing the right thing until the last possible minute, if ever. Some of these private anti-semites went on to be lauded as Nazi opponents. Harvard President James Conant, whose opposition to the Nazi regime was lukewarm at best during the early and mid 1930's, and whose private correspondence reveals an ugly anti-semitism, stands out in this regard. Thank you Professor Norwood. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,524,428 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #67 in United States History Textbooks #1,014 in Holocaust #10,572 in United States History (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 38 Reviews | ## Images ![The Third Reich in the Ivory Tower: Complicity and Conflict on American Campuses - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511QjgA1M7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ AWESOME *by J***N on 5 December 2023* AWESOME ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great!

The information was not only new, but an eye opener. Especially, since most colleges sweep the truth about their past dirty laundry under the rug They are more concerned about PC image than the truth that has tarnished their image. I teach about America's involvement with the Eugenics program of Nazi Germany. Such groups as the Rockefeller Center, The Carnegie Institute, Henry Ford and IBM, as well as number of Ivy League Colleges and Universities were all embracing the Nazi Eugenics System, and some even went beyond it to assist in the Holocaust. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Third Reich in the Ivory Tower: Complicity and Conflict on American Campuses - Hitler's American Friends - Buried by the Times: The Holocaust and America's Most Important Newspaper --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/686575506-the-third-reich-in-the-ivory-tower-complicity-and-conflict](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/686575506-the-third-reich-in-the-ivory-tower-complicity-and-conflict) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
