Really excellent interview with @adam_tooze about Columbia’s finances, pointing out not only the incompetence of its fund managers, but the relative financial insignificance - but outsize political weight - of donors like Kraft. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one…

Still wondering what the campus protests are all about, and why students are willing to face increasingly brutal responses by their universities? Here, in their own words, are students from Columbia, CUNY, NYU, and Yale articulating their demands. lpeproject.org/blog/from-the-…
Week in review: @dcli on the political economy of artillery shells and imperialism, and reflections from the encampments by students at Columbia, CUNY, NYU, and Yale. Plus, CfPs, open letters, and new LPE writing from around the web 🧵 lpeproject.org/blog/weekly-ro…

IIRC, in Capital in the 21st C, Piketty shows that universities with large endowments (HYP) outperform places like Grinnell, which he suggests is due to HYP having access to off-book investments. Has anyone done a 10-year follow-up on the specific universities he compares?

Everyone is talking about the student protests. But *stunning* how little we've heard from student organizers themselves. We asked some to explain their aims and concerns. If you read one thing about the protests today, read this: lpeproject.org/blog/from-the-…
I’m sure her heart was in the right place, but by explicitly breaking the rules of the bus Rosa Parks had more than a little in common with January 6.

lol, this Br*itbart piece is supposed to be a hit piece but other than spelling my name wrong, they fail to successfully insult me at all
Could we please have civilian control of the police, please?
Like I said it was an accident….I’m back!!!! I started to read this garbage and quickly realized this is coming from a person who hates our city and certainly does not represent the great people of NYC. But I did manage to play the word replacement game, and it goes like this:…
@j_e_brandt lol, you are so right, I didn’t read it closely enough to realize how stupid it was. I mean if you’re gonna lie about what the tweet says maybe don’t quote it in full and link to it. amazing!
a good day to read what the students organizing these encampments are thinking about 👀👀 (hint: they are less focused on their own repression and more focused on the horrors in Gaza and the complicity of their institutions) lpeproject.org/blog/from-the-…
In Shafik’s original letter to the NYPD on April 18–before students occupied a building—she said protesters were imposing a “clear and present danger” but didn’t say what the threat actually was. When I asked the university to explain what she meant, here’s what they said:
She says protestors "crossed a line" when they occupied Hamilton Hall... but she called the police on her students ten days before that happened! Does she think her students are morons? Why would they listen to her until that she notes her error in escalating the situation?
We're getting the terrorism book, the scary bike chain, the "stabbed in the eye" claim, etc because the editorial standards on covering students were already in the toilet and everyone knows it. No one cares. Here it's ok to report from your prejudices. x.com/OsitaNwanevu/s…
For years now, journalists have been able to make sweeping generalizations about students with impunity. We've seen events misreported repeatedly.
sarah “right side of history” isgur
Do you really believe you're on the right side of history if you're afraid to be recognized? Civil rights protestors didn't cover their faces. Vietnam draft protestors didn't. Apartheid protestors didn't. KKK protestors did.
Sounds like a well-disciplined movement that takes strategy seriously and doesn’t just let any random undergrad mouth off to a Murdoch-employed Reagan speechwriter who will not under any circumstances describe the protests fairly
When protests are not about actually explaining your cause or trying to engage journalists who are there to listen. @Peggynoonannyc describes her visit to Columbia before the raid.
New Mexico to receive $28.6 million to improve water quality by replacing lead pipes santafenewmexican.com/news/local_new… via @thenewmexican
NYPD found bike chains and books on a University campus and are seriously concerned that someone is up to no good. Clearly our city is safe in their hands.
Dep. Commissioner Daughtry says he found "a book on terrorism" at Columbia. (The book is not a how-to book, but a history written by a renowned British historian.)
Peggy, who after Hurricane Katrina infamously said looters should be shot, is mad that the “beautiful” college student and her friends have a media plan.
When protests are not about actually explaining your cause or trying to engage journalists who are there to listen. @Peggynoonannyc describes her visit to Columbia before the raid.
“If you [donate to Columbia] you’re basically saying you’re giving it to a bunch of incompetents who aren’t going to steward this money as well as holding an ETF would.” - @adam_tooze, on the failure of Columbia’s investments on a pure economic basis. open.spotify.com/episode/4k1Qsy…
The president has now sent out an email seeking to defend her decision to call in the NYPD. Speaking as a member of the @nyuniversity faculty, the letter leaves a lot to be desired. There is, again, a disconnect between the harms identified and the actions taken. (1/7)
This is incredibly disappointing — and galling to learn from the police, rather than @nyuniversity. I hope the administration has more of an explanation for its decision than the non-specific facts referenced in the letter below.
1/Thread: Why we should be very troubled about the hasty deployment of police to put down campus protests: a) police response is disproportionate b) campus raids accelerate disruption & distrust, reduce safety c) use of force legitimates future authoritarian responses to dissent.
The ratio is soooo funny
A message from President Shafik.
In truly Tooze-ian fashion, the numbers are coming thick and fast and they serve a good purpose: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one…
By sitting down and negotiating peacefully with the encampment at UC Riverside, the administration and protesters reached a deal and the encampment is being peacefully taken down. The college will form a task force to disclose investments and explore divestment. Terms:
@gabrielwinant It's been literally mind numbing how every official Democrat is blurring together violence to human beings and violation of property rights like it's 1914
