.IF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY'S president, Minouche Shafik, thought that pro-Palestinian demos will diminish after she hired New york city City authorities on April 18th, she was wrong. The tents are back and also militants are emboldened: in the early hours of April 30th they utilized an educational institution structure, blocked its own doors as well as curtained a flag reading "intifada" coming from its own front view. Considering that the start of the war in Gaza there have actually been protests at colleges throughout America and also, at a lot of them, arrests. Students claim, sometimes rightly as well as occasionally incorrectly, that they are actually exercising their free-speech civil rights. What plans govern demonstration and also speech on university?
