A current Princeton student claims that at least a third of its graduating African American studies majors were involved in the encampment—and that they have now been arrested and evicted.

Columbia student demands “humanitarian aid” from the university she is attempting to conquer. Failure to provide that aid, she says, would be an act of violence that causes her and other foot soldiers of the revolution to starve.

What does that remind me of?

'The only way...to keep our students safe is for faculty to be involved,' says the professor and core curriculum chair who cheered on the encampment that devolved into a riot.

Note that the expulsion is only for students who /continue/ to occupy the building. Those who have occupied it up until this point will not necessarily be expelled.

The reason you're seeing the encampments pop up across the country is because they work, and the more universities give in, the more encampments you'll see.

Democrats should have a fun convention.

Columbia is only paying their campus security officers $50k a year to singlehandedly corral hundreds of entitled student activists without NYPD assistance.

Rather than end the crisis by shutting down the protest, Columbia is banning reporters from campus so they can't report on it.

Press access to campus is now suspended 'as a safety measure'

I wonder how recent events will affect the odds of this bill's passage. And I wonder if Columbia knows how it will affect those odds.

Columbia University Front of Hamilton Hall—where students have blockaded doors with tables and smashed windows.

Also worth noting, the Columbia freshman dormitory is steps away—students have not be able to sleep or study for their finals coming up next week.

One under-explored dynamic of recent protests: classicists are overrepresented.

At Columbia, classics professor Joseph Howley is an outspoke supporter of the encampment.

At Princeton, classics professor Dan el Peralta and classics PhD student Aditi Rao are both involved.

NEW: One of the most outspoken supporters of the Columbia encampment, classics professor Joseph Howley, is leading a review of the required humanities curriculum for all undergraduates.

Every student at Columbia will have to read the texts he assigns.🧵

Scandalous—they’ve clearly earned a raise!

Surrounding, grabbing, and pushing journalists when they try to move—very peaceful.

One side glorifies self-immolation, dons terrorist regalia, calls to murder all Zionists, and destroys university property in late-night riots.

The other side shouts fatphobic insults at protesters.

Clearly, there are extremes on both sides.

Are they wearing gloves to avoid leaving prints or because they are hypochondriacs?

This is what happens when there are no consequences

Princeton students call to release the hostages. No, not the ones being held by Hamas—the ones being carted away by Princeton police.
