For some time now we’ve been hearing rumors that the increasingly violent pro-Hamas protests on American university campuses were not really “homegrown” activities at all, but were being incited by outside groups of paid, professional agitators. Now, following some investigation into police reports released by officials, we appear to have confirmation. Quite a few of […]
Two more pro-Palestinian encampments were cleared out this morning at NYU and the New School. Police used a special tactic on the protesters. They showed up early. Police officers arrested 56 people — 13 at N.Y.U. and 43 at the New School — according to preliminary information from the Police Department. Student demonstrators had been […]
The Columbia campus was cleared of tents and occupiers last night, with as many as 300 people arrested between Columbia and CUNY where police also cleared the campus. Activists at Columbia posted this sad image of the empty campus this morning. The caption with this reads: as of this morning, all our tents have been […]
Protesters have been camped out around the Portland State University library for several days. Over the weekend the situation escalated as the protesters (not all of whom are students) began blocking off the entrance to the library. By Monday, school administrators asked the protesters to leave. After a pro-Palestinian protest sprouted at Portland State University […]
A question that has been asked since the antisemitic, anti-Israel, and anti-America protests began on college campuses across the country is where are the grown-ups? They are in Florida. It’s not surprising, is it? The University of Florida warned the Hamas sympathizers that if they didn’t follow campus rules, there would be consequences. That included […]
Chaos ensued as Georgia police officers took several people into custody during a pro-Hamas protest at Emory University. Many students were arrested as Atlanta Police officers and Georgia State troopers wrestled the demonstrators to the ground. One demonstrator was seen being tasered. A video captured several students being sprayed with tear gas. Some witnesses reported […]
Earlier this month a Harvard Law School professor named Randall Kennedy called for the end of mandatory DEI statements, saying they made him “wince” and that they discredited the current “DEI regime.” Candidates for academic positions at Harvard should not be asked to support ideological commitments. Imagine the howl of protest that would (or should) […]
The University of Southern California is preparing for the graduation of the class of 2024, a ceremony that traditionally includes an address by the class valedictorian. This year that would be Asna Tabassum, a biomedical engineering student. But it turns out that Tabassum won’t be speaking a the event after all because her scheduled address […]
Oh, alma mater, your jihadi-covered halls… A Harvard Center will soon be hosting a pro-Hamas author at an antisemitic, woke event on campus. The Harvard University Center for Middle Eastern Studies (CMES) is hosting an April 18 event “Gaza as Epicenter: An Alternative Reading.” Translation: we hate Jews. Tareq Baconi, president of the board […]
Earlier this month I wrote about the University of Texas which was laying off around 60 employees in order to belatedly comply with a state law prohibiting DEI. I say belatedly because the law in question took effect at the beginning of the year but it seems UT’s first reaction wasn’t to get rid of […]
