A few words about the protests/encampments at Columbia: Back in December 2018, when I was a junior, a white student named Julian Von Abele was filmed going on an ethno-centric rant about how much he loved white people. He said things like: “White people are the best thing that…

@ManyaGustafson @Zingley2 @vlal42 Did you read the OP? It was measured by talking to the students and listening to what they said. A survey, if you will
@ManyaGustafson @vlal42 It's only my personal experience, & is relative to my specific field/s of study too, so that is the extent of its value. Don't ask for my "sources" lol as there aren't any
@ManyaGustafson @vlal42 I said experience? I've lost count how many colleges I've attended and studied in. But what stands out in my memory is how dumb the private school kids were and how ridiculously easy it was to pass tests versus the community college environment, which was a lot tougher & stricter
@amyjacobson @DanProft @MorningAnswer Aren’t there quite a few Jewish students there?
@Dfranci73628088 @vlal42 Wrong! You should not generalize. I work exclusively with Gen Z kids and they are hard working, caring and smart. These brats that are protesting represent the privileged few whose parents can afford a lawyer to get them out of trouble.
It’s likely that these young men don’t fully understand what that flag represents because “social studies” education in America is so weak. It’s also very likely that they have family members who instilled in them a sense of gratitude and love for their country through…
Are you nuts?
It’s worth remembering that this was egged on by MAGA GOP in Congress who don’t actually care a whit for the well-being of Jews, Palestinians, liberal higher education, or democracy — and have managed (with a lot of help) to do serious harm to all of them.
I haven't been particularly harsh on the protests so far, but I really want to see a lot of lawsuits paying out tens of millions to the students that these universities are refusing to protect
Sent from @UCLA: A student tells me encampment occupants effectively took a Jewish person hostage, holding him for an hour before releasing him.
No. Police. For THREE HOURS I don’t even live in CA, but I don’t think there is any way for @MayorOfLA or @GavinNewsom to justify this It’s a PUBLIC university
UCLA 🚨: FIGHTS continue through the night. Dozens injured , multiple bleeding, still ZERO law enforcement present. Both sides drag their wounded and fresh protestors replace them on the front. Total Anarchy.
Do we really want to normalize "hybrid" schooling? the74million.org/article/new-yo…
This guy is doing some impressive reporting with footage from UCLA, for anyone interested.
BREAKING 🚨: Private Security and protestors have been maced, and security has left the encampment. The barriers between Pro Israel and Pro Palestine protestors has been destroyed, multiple explosions, fights breaking out.
Every European watching American college protests: “why are they wearing masks? And outside?! I don’t understand.”
Human challenge models which deliberately infect consenting adults with SARS-CoV-2 to understand immune responses to infection, vaccines & responses to therapeutics failed as participants all had high levels of immunity
Researchers deliberately infect participants with SARS-CoV-2 in ‘challenge’ trials — but high levels of immunity complicate efforts to test vaccines and treatments go.nature.com/3JDvvfH
WKCR, the Columbia University radio station, did an outstanding job covering the chaotic events unfolding on (and immediately off) campus last night. It provided sober and thorough reporting from multiple angles, far better than hit-and-run social media. Kudos to the WKCR staff.
Our team of 18 student volunteers is immensely proud to be providing this coverage to the Columbia community, NYC, and the world at large. We are incredibly appreciative of your support and understanding.
@vlal42 This mirrors my experience with the younger people through Scouting and entry-level hires at my workplace. Focus on living their own lives, helping their families, doing their jobs.
Everybody remember this sage advice in eight years when my daughter is applying to schools 🙃
If you still have a college decision to make, would strongly reiterate this advice. The perceived value of an Ivy League degree is going to go down a lot. natesilver.net/p/go-to-a-stat…
