Last week I wrote about the protests that had come to dominate my professional home, Columbia University, and make headlines across the country. I said that though I did not believe the participants ... feeling under siege for their Jewishness.
After students occupied the university's storied Hamilton Hall and police officers in riot gear conducted over 100 arrests ... professors either trim or eliminate final examinations in our classes.
What happened this week was not just a rise in the temperature. The protests took a wrong turn, of a kind I have seen too many other activist movements take. ... as a chance to speak truth to power.
