Six students reported verbal and physical harassment for wearing keffiyehs at the School of General Studies’ annual gala on April 20. The students reported having their keffiyehs ripped off and being insulted, flipped off, and punched.

I wrote about the history of US agricultural policy, the political coalition behind the Farm Bill cycle, and the failure to consider the most obvious form of “climate-smart” ag policy: converting millions of acres of commodity crops into new forests to capture and store carbon.

some examples of “non-students”:
-faculty
-journalists
-students from other schools (esp in CUNY network)
-alumni
-supporters/observers (a common feature of pretty much every protest/picket line!)

spreading these dumbass pie graphs without context/verification is irresponsible

University Presidents continue violently disrupting education and making students unsafe.

Columbia administration knowingly submits students to the risk of severe injury or death in a series of unnecessary escalations to please donors and trustees who are offended by their views.

It's curious that while Biden and his amen corner have been bloviating about Trump's threat to democracy (which is real!), they're doing their best to deepen our police state tendencies.

At 12:30 p.m., Dartmouth faculty and staff staged a walkout on the Green in response to the arrest of 90 individuals last night. They are also circulating a petition calling for an emergency meeting of the General Faculty of the College.

Remember, everything that's happening in the US right now—every rubber bullet, every lie from a public official—is consciously designed to make this possible.

My employer, Columbia University, decided in the name of 'safety' to lock us faculty out while inviting NYPD police to occupy campus. With that, Columbia achieved the end goal of managerial education (what some call the neoliberal university), a university without professors.

The ADL is praising Dartmouth’s response to anti-war protests after the police called in to remove protesters brutally knocked down and arrested 65 year old Professor Annelise Orleck, who is head of Jewish Studies and now banned from campus for six months

Here’s what Khan Younis looks like now after 7 months of genocide

you can’t really argue that trump being in office right now would be any worse because at least all these braindead liberals would reflexively oppose his actions

A police officer discharged a FIREARM in my place of work while arresting student protestors Tuesday night. Our students have never been less safe. Cops off our camps NOW

this is the best thing i’ve ever seen happen at columbia
