This semester at U.S. universities, campuses are being transformed from centers of struggle against the genocide in Gaza to epicenters of repression against student activism.
Universities aim to quash campus activism before it can take center stage as it did in the spring, adopting draconian policies targeting individual professors.
Northwestern University suspended journalism professor Steven Thrasher over the summer for standing alongside his students and protecting them from police assault at the encampment.
More recently, Cornell University suspended graduate student Momodou Taal after a September 18 Palestine solidarity action; he is now facing deportation, a terrifying precedent for international students.
