This is incredibly bad, dangerous, and counterproductive. Responsible leaders should be doing everything they can to deescalate right now. This is throwing fuel on the fire, making everyone on college campuses less safe, and doing Republicans' work for them.

Six faculty members from Washington University — four of whom were arrested at Saturday’s protest — are not only banned from campus, but are forbidden from speaking with Wash U staff and students even in off-campus settings. riverfronttimes.com/news/wash-u-ba…
“protests are coercion” is a line being delivered in unison by the reactionary contingent

really slimy little insinuation about student protesters from the times, which knows *exactly* what it is doing here nytimes.com/2024/04/29/nyr…
NOW: Columbia University faculty link arms and form a wall in front of the entrance to the ‘Gaza Solidarity Encampment’ as hundreds of students encircle the both lawns Students remaining in the encampment were told they could face disciplinary action after 2PM
Another urgent warning has come in from Harvard admin about the encampment. this one does worry me

Columbia University hired private investigators to pursue pro-Palestine students. Vanderbilt University canceled a divestment vote, then expelled students after they protested. Pomona College sent police officers in riot gear to arrest 20 students. @prem_thakker reports,…
it's bad that I know without opening it who this is
Cal Poly Humboldt’s shameful administration sent cops to BULLDOZE the students Gaza solidarity encampment. Think about this for a moment. Think about these tactics. Where have you have seen people and encampments being bulldozed before?
Cornell students: “Cornell's Administration agreed to reverse evictions of four students targeted with political suspensions, and to open negotiations over divestment protestors' eight demands…Cornell knows investing in genocide and targeting peaceful protestors is unpopular.”
Sending in the police to beat the fuck out of your students so you can stay invested in the company that forgets to put about 15% of the rivets in every commercial plane they make

even when they're supposedly ashamed of harvard they gotta tell you three times in three sentences that they went to harvard. twice
Since I was a 12 year-old lower-middle class kid from Kentucky, I wanted to go to Harvard. I’ve been proud of it my entire life. I even went twice. Today is the first time I’ve ever considered burning my degrees.

Ladies and gentleman, the aulos, the final thing Plato heard, and a reminder that the ancient Greeks were going wild for the gnarliest skrawk imaginable. Return. To. Tradition. open.spotify.com/track/3rj3vPlg…
Good morning @PetrocTrelawny @BBCRadio3, Apologies for being a pedant, but according to the Herculaneum papyrus, Plato was listening to the aulos in his final hours - a double pipe rather than a flute. But more evidence of how important music was to him.
a harvard grad threating to burn his degree is like a lich threatening to destroy his own phylactery. go ahead and do it lol

In the spring of 1985 we padlocked the front doors of Hamilton Hall, renaming it Mandela Hall, and encamped on the steps for three weeks. Columbia divested from South Africa in the fall of 1985.

As I've noted in other threads, not all clothing has to conform to ideals about gendered forms. Outfits can be concealing, unflattering, or even disfiguring. Fashion is more than making men into David and women into Venus. Sometimes, stuff just looks cool! See Comme des Garçons.
Gordon Gee wrecked a whole state’s flagship public university and has never been rebuked by Congress or called to testify.
New: 21 House Democrats led by Reps. Gottheimer and Goldman sent a letter to Columbia’s board of trustees telling them to “act decisively” to end the encampment or resign. It’s a major escalation of Democrats’ rhetoric. @axios axios.com/2024/04/29/hou…
