A huge crowd of faculty members who teach at Columbia University in New York held a mass walk-out on Monday afternoon to protest the institution having called police to arrest students at a pro-Palestinian encampment protest last week. Hundreds of members of the teaching cohort at Columbia walked out in solidarity with the students who were arrested by the New York police department last week and also suspended by the university. The solidarity protest came as students put protest tents back up in the middle of campus on Monday after they were torn down last week when more than 100 arrests were made.

What a collection of nutjobs.
Cancel Columbia
What a collection of nutjobs.
Producing college educated dummies!
Oh, if only the administration, faculty and students in these God-forsaken institutions would begin doing battle with each other for real.
Somebody needs to burn the wretched, $h!+-faced place to the ground. Hate begats hate. . . .
They have forfeited their rights to study and work among civilized people.
I remember the old adage of the appeaser who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last. Well, the brainiacs who have been constantly donating and supporting the left wing lunatics, aka Marxists/Socialists, for decades. Now these Marxists/Socialists are running the universities, MSM, woke corporations, The Pentagon, DOJ, FBI, CIA, EPA, the Democrat Party and many states. The crocodile has been empowered and is coming for us, the Jew and the Conservative.
Running an Ivy League university is like running a theater where the performers, the professors, incite the audience, the student body, to riot, and audience pays the admission charge because they look forward to the opportunity to riot.
A crazy business.
Except that the business depends on donations from previous audiences, alumni, to finance a big part of cost of operation out of a sense of gratitude. The restraint on the scam is not to have the riots target other audience members or the members of the alumni.
The full-freight paying idiot children of Middle Eastern potentates are too lucrative a source of income to ignore, and too fecund ground for the Johnny Appleseeds of resentment, the faculty, to forego the opportunity to cultivate.
A crazy business.
Hopefully that gives the University an option to suspend?
Bye!
Fire the faculty that walked out in support of the Hamas crowd. Tenure should not be an issue. Supporting those calling for the death of America should be.
Buh By you anti-American POS’s.
The school should tell them their resignation is accepted.
If Columbia University wants to reclaim any status as a legit institution, it needs to summarily terminate any faculty who participated - whether in the protest it self, or in the walk-out. Both have damaged the University. Both have been far more than “free speech”, as it has contained serious threats to Jewish students (many of which have had absolutely NOTHING to do with Israel/Gaza.
Columbia is now a resume killer good luck getting a job on your scooter bike.
FIRE THEM ALL
Good. They’ve self-identified. Now fire them.
Nothing new for Columbia. They tolerated, even encouraged, same sh*t in 1968, then it was SDS and VietNam.
