Columbia University begins suspending students still at encampment

As day turned into night and Tuesday quickly approached, most of the students that spoke to CBS New York's Ali Bauman said they weren't going anywhere.

Looks like some professors need to lose tenure. 🤷‍♀️😒

[petercao]

Those professors are the problem and need to be held accountable

[Just-Human]

The stench there has to be horrendous.

[spacini]

Faculty hiding behind masks....so brave.

[Devonellah]

They should be Expelled -- not Suspended!

[spencerbrown]

I just don’t see what all these protests even achieve? What a waste of time.

[justrelaxing]

Haha the university admin are like incompetent parents who say no to their children but give in constantly to their tantrums.

[Linsmith]

One side won't follow the rules and students are now being suspended. The other side is suing the college. What a mess.

[cmoberg]

Call in the National Guard and clean house.

Our students don't protest, it's exam period. Those who are at the end of their studies must defend their diploma thesis and take the state final exam in the field. There is no time for any protests.

[vonniofdoom]

Those professors as well as the school board will have to look elsewhere for jobs, because by the looks of it they will end up suspending half of the students that are enrolled.

It’s not a right to prevent students from going to class

[jasonwalker]

dont even ask about student loan forgiveness, traitors

I'm a free believer in free speech. But i also believe that free speech doesn't mean hate speech. Nobody Jewish or otherwise should walk down the street and feel discriminated against, insulted, or threatened. Suspension is too lenient. They should be expelled. And the faculty protecting them should be fired and lose their license to teach in this country.

just make a class where you actually go to gaza for credit. let them put their words into action if they are so staunch in their support

[carmentin]

Guess what America is not hearing your voice go protest in your home country

[Starlightbarking]

Why not suspend them; they clearly arent interested in getting an education, or letting their fellow students get one.

[boyasia]

Its a distraction to the total student population...to learning.

[arikun]

That students do not request to free the hostages, - and this said about the nature of that protests

You have to wonder why college kids don't try to understand the words they use. Just because they sound good, they blurt them out.
And no teacher ever told them they're gonna sound stupid when they do that in public.
