An investigation into how and why a Jewish student group was erased from a New Jersey high school yearbook has found the omission was caused by negligence and carelessness, but was not done on purpose or out of malice. East Brunswick Public Schools hired a law firm to investigate after the situation came to light earlier this month and caused an uproar. A photo of a group of Muslim students appeared in the spot reserved for the Jewish Student Union, and the names of the Jewish group’s members were omitted from the page. The probe found the yearbook advisor use the incorrect photo by mistake.
