On May 14, Logan Rozos, a student at New York University (NYU), gave a brief but powerful speech during the graduation ceremony of Gallatin, a liberal arts school within NYU. In his remarks (transcribed by World-Outlook from the video of Rozos’ speech, and published in this post), the student condemned the U.S.-backed Israeli war on the Palestinian people in Gaza. NYU immediately announced it is withholding the student’s diploma as it pursues disciplinary actions against him, in the latest flashpoint between free speech principles and punishment for pro-Palestinian advocacy on U.S. college campuses.
Now I’m reading items that state this is Heritage groundwork for routing out the liberal elite, eventually. Starting with this, context just a distraction.
Maybe. As a side effect. I still think it’s likely about squelching protests that may gain momentum. Again though, context as a distraction.
Wtf does withholding some twenty year old’s diploma for criticizing an ACTIVE GENOCIDE have to do with “rooting out liberal elites”?
What a nonsense comment.
