The article describing the award notes that Ono, “is the largest college in Israel, with over 23,000 students studying at its three campuses (Kiryat Ono, Haifa, and Jerusalem). In 2024, OAC, which includes four faculties (Law, Business Administration, Health, and Humanities), was named the most recommended academic college by Globes.”
It continues by describing Ono’s activities in the Iron Swords War, saying, “During the Israel-Hamas War, 24 OAC students and alumni of the college were killed, dozens were injured, and hundreds served for months in military reserve service while receiving significant academic and financial support from the college. The students and academic staff volunteered to help evacuated families, providing 350 people with temporary housing solutions in the student dormitories. Dozens of lecturers provided trauma therapy treatment in hospitals and IDF bases. Indeed, the entire OAC multicultural community – Jews, Arabs, Christians, and others – stepped in to help each other out.”
