apparently oct 7 never happened.
It did. And then the following years happened. And before Oct 7, a whole bunch of other years and days happened. Those all factor in too you know, right?
This is one of the rare occasions I would recommend putting “diploma withheld” on your resume.
So. Not proud. I’m on academic probation. This would not work. What you’re saying would not work. Anywhere.
The world is not a monolith, and this would be a green flag for the many, many people who support his actions and value integrity among their employees.
I would even recommend, “Graduated, With Honors, diploma withheld.”
By emphasizing the former part with capital letters, one can infer that the latter part doesn’t actually matter.
All throughout history it’s our young people who are brave enough to stand up to fascism, authoritarianism and oppression.
I ride a motorcycle, an old BMW and I named her Sophie. I don’t plaster it all over the bike, it’s just a silly thing I do for myself to remind me of the past. The name is after Sophie Scholl, a young 21 year old university student who stood up and protested against the Nazi regime in her country in 1943.
Even in the face of severe punishment she kept protesting until they arrested her and put her to death.
This young man is giving up so much, maybe giving up their future, to fight for all of us … there is no greater bravery than that.
And we all know that the university is just f****** around. They will withhold whatever documentation for a month or two, and then if he gets a lawyer they will quietly cave, because they never cared one way or the other, they’re just afraid of Trump.
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.
Because of course they are, Cowards.
Prob to be followed soon by his “deportation” (read: sequester in El Salvador gulag).
