He responded. Said he didn’t know. Suspected not great. That’s responsive. Changing the subject and manipulating reality seems like a one-sided affair dominated by Israel and its supporters, tbh. |
Students can ask their universities to divest. And the universities won't. Nor should they. |
It’s your opinion that they shouldn’t, but it’s based on your racist support of an apartheid state so who cares? |
Link to some. |
Columbia says FAFO. The following was told to students who refuse to leave the encampment by 2pm today.
https://www.npr.org/2024/04/29/1247761719/campus-protests-arrests-suspensions “You are not permitted to complete the Spring 2024 semester, including participate in classes or exams in-person or remotely or otherwise submit assignments or engage in any activities affiliated with Columbia University," the notice reads. "You may lose the semester. If you are scheduled to graduate, you are no longer eligible." |
What a relief this must be for these students. They don't have to associate or be associated with these horrible universities anymore. |
Uh, $320k down the drain and no degree but yeah let’s stick it to them! |
It seems like a win-win-win for the student protesters. They got their message out, won't have their resumes sullied, and got valuable practice camping out in makeshift housing. |
Won’t have their resumes sullied? How will they get a job with no college degree. Good luck transferring anywhere decent. Good luck applying to grad school. Idiots. |
Eh. They could transfer to another school or be re-admitted to Columbia. This will pass pretty soon and they can claim temporary zeitgeist as an excuse. |
Maybe. I don’t think others schools will want to touch them. And either way they lose the cost of an entire semester. |
The protesters made demands. The university made demands. Each can respond how they wish. |
Don’t you understand?! They want vengeance, to destroy them, to ruin their lives! Sure, none of the protests affected them at all. And sure, none of them even attended from Columbia. That doesn’t matter. They went again Israel. And for that, they want to ruin their lives, drive them into the ground, make ashes of their career prospects, etc. Ya know, totally normal, adjusted reactions from a people of peace. |
Exactly. And other schools and employers can do what they wish with that information. Being a political pawn is not a protected class. |
