"Columbia University leadership made a series of concessions to the Trump administration on Thursday following an extraordinary letter that listed nine demands it expected the university to make if it did not want its federal funding to be pulled.
On Thursday, the university announced it was expelling, suspending and revoking the degrees of 22 students following last year’s Hamilton Hall protest, fulfilling one of the nine demands issued in a letter from the Trump administration to Columbia."
These dumbasses really think capitulation will make the fascists go away? That’s never how it works. Now you’ve emboldened them to go further, you utter idiots.
I mean it’s Columbia. They have a history of this. They aren’t capitulating they are using an excuse to do what they wanted to anyways.
This is being driven by the board, not the faculty. The board supports the fascism.
