Tel-Hai Academic College

Tel-Hai University is a university and college located in Tel Hai in northern Israel, with campuses near Kibbutz Kfar Giladi and north of Kiryat Shmona, as well as in Katzrin and within Kiryat Shmona itself. On 22 May 2024, amidst the aggression of Hezbollah against northern municipalities during th

e Gaza war, the Israeli Minister of Education Yoav Kisch announced that Tel-Hai Academic College would thereafter become the University of Kiryat Shmona in the Galilee. The prospects of this coming to fruition are in question, given the College had been evacuated in connection with Israel's war against Hezbollah and Hamas. The University's Knowledge Center has also conducted a study indicating that upwards of 40 percent of evacuated inhabitants may not return to the north (where the University is located) even if the State of Israel wins the war.
