Columbia suspends over 65 students following pro-Palestinian protest in library

7. Blocking or obstructing other students from using the college library a week before finals

That is the height of meanness. “My cause is more important than the final exam grades of the thousands of students whose futures may depend on how their final grades turn out.”

Sixty-five people have adopted that stance. They could go harass Republican politicians or Eric Adams at city hall, but no, they choose to make life difficult for thousands of students—some of whom may even agree with their cause, but have other things occupying their minds as well. I notice the so-called protesters didn’t seem overly concerned about other desperate peoples, such as the people of South Sudan or the Burmese Rohingya. Maybe if two thousand students’ final grades come in disappointingly low, the protesters can dance around in Central Park and celebrate their great victory for their cause.
