Crowded skies over Hamilton Hall
People are passing food and water through the gates to the Columbia University Gaza Encampment protesters. Columbia has completely shut down access to campus to try to starve the encampment.
There’s a growing NYPD presence outside Columbia’s campus right now… including high ranking officers, supervisors, captains, and community affairs. They’ve launched a drone over Hamilton Hall.
There is another way
on this day, meet the sanest university president, @mroth78 - @wesleyan_u is lucky to have him
The repression at Barnard has been terrible for months.

All Columbia University faculty are currently locked out of our own campus. The only way out of the situation, let alone to keep our students safe, is for faculty to be involved, but we can’t even get through the gates.

Free story for any reporter (don't reach out to me, reach out to folks in @SW_Columbia): Grad students are currently locked out of university medical care. Our health insurance requires us to see a University primary care provider to obtain referrals

Faculty Statement on Imminent Police Action at Columbia University The American Association of University Professors, Columbia University Chapter For immediate release: April 30, 2024, 8:00pm At this hour, the NYPD is massing on barricaded streets outside the gates of Columbia…
As a former educator I know how dangerous the over-policing and militarization of our schools is. This is shameful and unacceptable. Our kids deserve better, our teachers deserve better, and our schools deserve better.
Massive police presence with cops with bats and helmets outside Columbia University amid reports raid may be imminent
Columbia is doing so much to harm students right now as they stand for what is right and has deliberately blocked faculty access so we can stand with and protect them. What confidence can be had in this admin?
I only this year learned that CU has an MA program in Negotiation and Conflict Resolution which is hilarifying (portmanteau, not my usual typo) given where we are. Maybe they’ll rename it Escalation and Carceral Response in honor of Shafik.

@hashtagoras You were excellent on Brian Lehrer this morning, a much needed voice of reason & clarity.
on this day, meet the sanest university president, @mroth78 - @wesleyan_u is lucky to have him
Really grateful to @hashtagoras for using his voice so eloquently to amplify the causes of Palestinian liberation, anti-Zionist Jews, student protest, academic freedom, and basic reality:
Had a great time talking to @hashtagoras about the battle in Columbia over Israel/Palestine. He's on the ground there and provides a great corrective to a lot of lazy punditry. thenation.com/podcast/activi…
Always good when German officials declare people to be stateless.
Palestinian students at Otto von Guericke University in Magdeburg, Germany received an email from the school that they’ve been recategorized as “stateless” due to governmental “changes in the statistical requirements.” Germany no longer recognizes Palestinian as a nationality.
WHO supplied the what maybe EIGHT DOLLARS american it costs to make such a vest
adore the implication that qatari dark money, or hezbollah, or maybe even sinwar himself, has paid for some teachers to tape print outs in times new roman to the back of easily attainable hi vis vests
@hashtagoras You killed it this AM on Brian Lehrer. Truth to power. Great job. Really appreciated your sane, reasoned and insightful POV.
Grateful to @Columbia Classics Prof @hashtagoras (Joseph A. Howley) on @BrianLehrer for calmly, coolly, cogently dismantling the "antisemitism" canard weaponized by Congressional R's and, sadly, @nytimes to sideline pro-Palestine opinion & Israel-slaughter protest. So impressive!
i'm worried that @hashtagoras is going to impose woke authors like (checks notes) roman grammarian Aulus Gellius on the Columbia student body.
People who think students should not ever protest — here or anywhere else — should just come out and say so. That’s a coherent position. But please do stop defending highly similar protests elsewhere and in history while claiming these are somehow very different. They’re not.
They're still here. Still singing.
Damn, his work seems woke as hell.
NEW: One of the most outspoken supporters of the Columbia encampment, classics professor Joseph Howley, is leading a review of the required humanities curriculum for all undergraduates. Every student at Columbia will have to read the texts he assigns.🧵
The difference between @hashtagoras and the bottom-feeding right-wing hacks trying to smear him is that he actually reads Latin and Greek and cares about educating undergrads in the classics, in a way that isn't a euphemism for white supremacy
The official slogan of @UMassAmherst is “Be Revolutionary.” Can the university administration show to the world that there is an alternative to crackdowns and police violence in response to peaceful students’ protests?
a Gaza solidarity encampment is up at UMass Amherst
My office was right by the encampment, and I cannot understand how it interferes with exams. It’s that little red circle. Not a single notable the protest in the history of modern protest would meet the requirements of “acceptable” protest from many past free speech advocates.
