Councilwoman Vickie Paladino @VickieforNYC The NYPD confirms that 99% of arrests at NYU were indeed students, not 'outside agitators'. The sad reality is that our schools are producing monsters, and it's now our job to slay them. Simple as that. And the schools and faculty who sit at the top of this chaos must be razed along with them. They're not interested in solutions, as their literature makes crystal clear. It's going to be messy, but it's also going to be worth it. They're leaving us with no choice though. Time to make our educational institutions about education again.

It must be wild to be a student right now.

EVHaste @Haste@mastodon.social It must be wild to be a student right now. School shootings? You're on your own. Thoughts and prayers. Peaceful protest? That's going too far. Send in the riot gear. That America feels empowered to intervene in one but not the other tells you everything you need to know. May 01, 2024, 07:37 AM · ⚫ Mastodon for iOS 405 boosts 464 favorites

Statement from Columbia University President Minouche Shafik

Statement from Columbia University President Minouche Shafik April 29, 2024 COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK Dear fellow members of the Columbia community, Our University is committed to four core principles, which underpin all of our work and our shared values as a community: First, we must keep all members of our community physically safe on campus. Second, we are committed to academic freedom and to ensuring that all members of our community have the right to speak their minds. Third, just as everyone at Columbia has the right to express their views, they also must respect the rights of others to do the same. As a result, protests must comply with time, place, and manner restrictions which, for example, prevent loud protests at night when other students are trying to sleep or prepare for exams. One group's rights to express their views cannot come at the expense of another group's right to speak, teach, and learn. Fourth, our values-as well as our duties under civil rights laws-compel us to condemn hate and to protect every member of our community from harassment and discrimination. Antisemitic language and actions are unacceptable and calls for violence are simply abhorrent. I know that many of our Jewish students, and other students as well, have found the atmosphere intolerable in recent weeks. Many have left campus, and that is a tragedy. To those students and their families, I want to say to you clearly: You are a valued part of the Columbia community. This is your campus too. We are committed to making Columbia safe for everyone, and to ensuring that you feel welcome and valued. We've worked hard to balance these principles. To that end, since Wednesday, a small group of academic leaders has been in constructive dialogue with student organizers to find a path that would result in the dismantling of the encampment and adherence to University policies going forward. Regretfully, we were not able to come to an agreement. Both sides in these discussions put forward robust and thoughtful offers and worked in good faith to reach common ground. We thank them all for their diligent work, long hours, and careful effort and wish they had reached a different outcome. The University's goal for the talks was a collaborative resolution with the protestors that would result in the orderly removal of the encampment from the lawn. The students also were asked to commit going forward to following the University's rules, including those on the time, place, and manner for demonstrations and events. While the University will not divest from Israel, the University offered to develop an expedited timeline for review of new proposals from the students by the Advisory Committee for Socially Responsible Investing, the body that considers divestment matters. The University also offered to publish a process for students to access a list of Columbia's direct investment holdings, and to increase the frequency of updates to that list of holdings. Additionally, the University offered to convene a faculty committee to address academic freedom and to begin a discussion on access and financial barriers to academic programs and global centers. The University also offered to make investments in health and education in Gaza, including supporting early childhood development and support for displaced scholars. There are important ideas that emerged from this dialogue, and we plan to explore pursuing them in the future. As the past seven months have shown, our campus is roiled by divisions over the war in Gaza. All year, we have sought to facilitate opportunities for our students and faculty to engage in constructive dialogue, and we have provided ample space for protests and vigils to take place peacefully and without disruptions to academic life. But we must take into account the rights of all members of our community. The OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT Administration About the President ▾ Announcements Speeches everyone—including our neighbors. With classes now concluding, it represents a noisy distraction for our students studying for exams and for everyone trying to complete the academic year. Consistent with our interim demonstration policies, after reading days, exams, and Commencement, protests may continue on campus by application with two-days' notice in authorized locations. We have no intention of suppressing speech or the right to peaceful protest. We also do not want to deprive thousands of students and their families and friends of a graduation celebration. Please recall that many in this graduating class did not get a celebration when graduating from high school because of the pandemic, and many of them are the first in their families to earn a University degree. We owe it to all of our graduates and their loved ones to honor their achievement. We want to reassure our community who are trying to make plans that we will indeed hold a Commencement. For all of the reasons above, we urge those in the encampment to voluntarily disperse. We are consulting with a broader group in our community to explore alternative internal options to end this crisis as soon as possible. We will continue to update the community with new developments. Sincerely, Minouche Shafik President, Columbia University in the City of New York

This might be the creepiest statement from a university yet. The way it highlights the sunny weather and resumption of admission tours, right after the student protesters have been disappeared. You can’t help but imagine some polished administrator saying

Miles Howard @MilesPerHoward - Apr 27 This might be the creepiest statement from a university yet. The way it highlights the sunny weather and resumption of admission tours, right after the student protesters have been disappeared. You can't help but imagine some polished administrator saying this with a Rictus grin. Northeastern U. @Northeastern - Apr 27 By 11:30 am, the quad in Centennial Common was fully secured and all campus operations have returned to normal. Admissions tours are taking place, our community is enjoying the beautiful Boston weather, and graduating students are posing for photos with their families. We want to thank NUPD, our Student Life staff, and the university's external partners for their flawless execution this morning. 18 431 3.2K 72K 口企

More than any other protest I’ve seen, Humboldt adopted a siege footing right from the start seemingly utilizing everything they learned to slow school shooters.

Not sure if that's the specific incident @Northeastern leadership is referring to

Tori Bedford @Tori_Bedford I did hear "kill the Jews," said by a counter-protester holding an Israeli flag, seemingly as a provocative joke in response to the group's pro- Palestine chants. Not sure if that's the specific incident @Northeastern leadership is referring to HN The Huntington News @HuntNewsNU • 13h Replying to @HuntNewsNU What began as a student demonstration two days ago, was infiltrated by professional organizers with no affiliation to Northeastern. Last night, the use of virulent antisemitic slurs, including 'Kill the Jews,' crossed the line. We cannot tolerate this kind of hate on our campus." 8:23 AM - Apr 27, 2024 - 862.8K Views 86 2.1K 9.4K ☐ 620 <] IMG

NEW: Organizers from @asu tell me state troopers zip tied and arrested a student who was barely conscious, after fainting from a POTS episode. Street medics tried to help her—they arrested the street medics. When her father came to help her, they zip tie

(((they/them))) @sarahemilybaum NEW: Organizers from @asu tell me state troopers zip tied and arrested a student who was barely conscious, after fainting from a POTS episode. Street medics tried to help her-they arrested the street medics. When her father came to help her, they zip tied him too. the girl was at the encampment area on old main when she passed out. police and state troopers were already there carrying out mass arrests. medics saw her on the ground with police approaching. police ended up arresting her and two medics. information from a medic not arrested: "Family yelled at us she has Potts, so syncope was not total surprise, but manageable had we gotten her to safety. Instead, police did zip tie her while she was semi conscious and placed her lolling in passenger seat. Her father was "allowed" to accompany her and we were told by police he was not arrested but he was zip tied as well." 16m 5:38 PM Apr 27, 2024 - 58.1K Views 18 tz 1K IMG 2.2K 148 T
