why would you want a degree from a university that confers a degree to a serial cheater and continue to pay her $900, 000 a year. do you really want to be associated with claudine gay? hasn't the diploma been cheapened?

[drtimoshea]

why graduate any of them? they haven't been in class for 6 months

Got Harvard's degree, still no jobs for you!

The silver lining in this is. Those 13 (radicalized) students. They went to college and learned about being held accountable for their own actions.. The time spent there and their tuition money💸 wasn't a total loss. Go Israel 🇮🇱

Again, who are these companies from which they’re asking divestment? Names? Can anyone provide facts in a business-plan which can be realized(work)? I’m hearing the WAGGING TONGUE but zero substance about divesting and ANY detail. Higher education should be able to have given us a factual summation; or is “no substance” acceptable at a University level of education? Gimme some truth. PEACE

Bravo to all those gutsy brilliant protestors. They deserve accolades and now seen as heroes..

Sure makes flying an upside down flag in distress seem more appropriate than ever.

I hope these protesters don't ruin Pride Month.

The voices of the youths who are the future generation are crying out for justice on behalf of the slaughtered Palestinians. Let their voices echo from all corners of the globe that they will not sit in silence. What greater love hath any one than to lay down his/her life for the downtrodden.

for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.

for they will be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Children are starving in Gaza
You are talking about human rights
Innocent children are still being killed in Gaza
You are still a pretend human rights activist
There is no one in the world as cruel as you, but you still speak like a gentleman
Your countrymen are protesting against injustice.
You have hidden the principle of injustice
Don't portray it as hate
They don't like what you're doing, not just them, but every human being in the world

So is it just the paper part of their degrees or their whole degrees?

[dieseldabz]

I'll be glad when stop hearing about this crap...

Question: Do you think the rights of European and American children and women will interest children and women's rights organizations and the Me Too movement and UN after there is a Muslim majority in the West?
