Pro-Hamas extremists and cowardly, incompetent administrators have robbed the rest of the graduates of the commencement they earned and the once-in-a-lifetime moment to celebrate with their families. The “adults” who allowed this chaos should be ashamed. www.reuters.com/world/us/columbia-cancels-university-wide-commencement-ceremony-after-protests-2024-05-06/

The tone of college admins is a reflection of the political climate, says @ESGlaude #Velshi www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/watch/columbia-prof-nypd-presence-has-left-students-feeling-less-safe-210266693743

Disappointed @Columbia canceled its university-wide commencement. Thousands of students who spent four years working hard are losing out because of the actions of a few. They deserve better. www.nydailynews.com/2024/05/06/columbia-university-cancels-graduation-ceremony-pro-palestinian-protests-arrests-hamilton-hall-gaza-encampment/
