Geoffrey Alderman

Geoffrey Alderman (born 10 February 1944) is a British historian who specialises in 19th and 20th centuries Jewish community in England.

From 1999, he has worked in the private educational sector, in the US (Touro College) and, from 2002 to 2006, at the American InterContinental University, London, where he was Academic Dean and Senior Vice-President.

[6][7] At that inquiry (17 July 2008) the chairman of the House of Commons' Select Committee on Innovation, Universities and Skills accused the Quality Assurance Agency of being "toothless" and declared that the British degree classification system had "descended into farce".

[9] In 2009, Alderman sparked another controversy when he argued that, according to Jewish religious law, every Palestinian in Gaza who voted for Hamas was a "legitimate target."

In early 2012, The Jewish Chronicle reported that complaints were made against a column by Alderman in which he wrote that "it is well known that Charedi men are notorious harassers of the opposite sex", that these comments breached accuracy and discrimination rules.
