All the protests have been allowed all over campuses national wide with no regard to any specific situation or location. There has been very little pushback at all.

I want to point out that I find it really troubling that the protests consist of people beyond students at Wash U and that they also are made up of outside of student adults.

Who said this protest was allowed?

“Might go to WL early”

That's unfortunate. There was some protesting going on at Chicago too but was localized at the main quad and was not disruptive at all.

This may have lingering consequences

Wow I wonder if that is a result of last years admission season. This year they seem to be turning back but the damage may be done.

That’s what student protesters do everywhere - find the biggest forum. No surprise

What a nightmare for WU.

Not to get sidetracked here, but I truly do not understand what these particular protesters were thinking. How could disrupting this admitted student event help advance their cause or impact or improve this very complicated conflict? It seems counter-productive at best, and more likely just destructive and foolish. I don’t understand.

Interesting ?

Was anyone else there? My son had an interesting experience and want to see if others did as well.
