As an alum of OKST, I find this whole thing just craptacular. The university president is generally a decent fellow but a total milquetoast when it comes to dealing with such irrational BS. Through the 60s & 70s, little of such outside rabble-rousing had much of a lasting impact on the campus. Today is another matter because raising any kind of principled objection will get you railroaded to the “racist re-education” camp in a quick minute.
Another OSU alum here, from 1965-1969 and again 1973-1976 with the Marine Corps in between. We did have some SDS freakazoids but most of us just ignored them.
