From Erwin to Hartzell: 60 Years of Conservative Politics at UT: Treatment of current protests is just the latest action against progressive students and faculty - News - The Austin Chronicle austinchronicle.com/news/2024-05-0…
Remembering the Reasons for the Protests: Students call for UT to divest from weapons manufacturers The UT/Texas A&M Investment Management Company (UTIMCO) held roughly $52.5 million worth of weapon manufacturers’ debt and equity securities in 2020. austinchronicle.com/news/2024-05-0…

JUST SENT: A tenured @HWSColleges prof was suspended last month after writing about the Israel-Hamas war, raising serious academic freedom, free speech, and due process concerns. FIRE urges the college to uphold its strong academic freedom promises and reinstate Professor Dean.
The same autocrats who have been disrupting our universities for years now crack down on "disruptive" protest, insisting business as usual must continue. For @JewishCurrents, I ask: How can business as usual not cease when business as usual is so murderous?jewishcurrents.org/who-has-the-ri…
@PenielJoseph is correct to put UT's protest crackdown in context of the larger authoritarian movement in Texas. @UTAustin administration is under enormous political pressure from #txlege leaders to preemptively suppress opposing political views.

1. An adjunct professor of philosophy at @UTArlington, Charles Hermes, was arrested at a campus protest on that campus, charged with trespassing (even though he was at his workplace), and told today that he can't return to campus, thus ending his employment.
