Alumni For Trinity

We, @tcddublin alumni, demand Trinity College Dublin rescind the €214k fine issued to TCDSU #HoldTCDAccountable.

[Alumni For Trinity @AlumniForTCD]

We are urging Trinity alumni who are outraged at @tcddublin's drastic decision to lump @tcdsu with a €214K fine, aimed at undermining students' right to protest, to contact the college and demand they rescind the fine.

Trinity students achieved a huge win yesterday, but the fight is not over. @tcdsu is still facing a €214K fine, due to be paid on May 30.

Trinity alumni, keep the pressure up and email college to demand the fine be rescinded: https://t.co/UsLmotGmsR

The protest will *still go ahead*. We will be gathering to celebrate the BDS victory at Trinity and to see and in solidarity with the students and workers targeted with disciplinary action for peaceful protest.

➡️ Rescind the fine
➡️ No punishment for peaceful protests

[Trinity College Dublin @tcddublin]

The encampment and blockade on campus will end today following successful talks between university senior management and protestors. Plans are underway to return to normal university business for students, staff & the public. Read the full statement: https://t.co/Q2zJKKwAig

Breaking: Trinity to work towards total divestment from Israel in unprecedented win for BDS. https://t.co/TiFBobSeVY

[Jenny Maguire (SU) @TCDSU_President]

There are decades where nothing happens and weeks where decades happen. 5 days is all it took for @tcddublin to commit to fully divesting from Israel. A testament to grassroots student-staff power.

[PWO TCD @PWO_TCD]

Solidarity pouring in from @ifut, @unitetheunion, and former @tcdsu officers for the @TrinityBDS encampment and those targeted by Trinity for peaceful, legal protest.

✊ Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions NOW
✊ Rescind the fee NOW
✊ Stop singling out & targeting protesters NOW

[PWO TCD @PWO_TCD]

Great to see so many Trinity academics standing for the right to protest and against targeted attacks on our community members.

Thank you, and solidarity!

88.97% of respondents to @Trinity_News' poll believe that the €214k fine to @tcdsu was not an appropriate response to the students’ union actions.

Done, pass it on.

The president of Trinity College Dublin Students’ Union has said that students will "indefinitely" block access to the Book of Kells on the college campus until the university cuts its ties to Israel.

This is so inspiring to see Trinity Students protest for #Palestine
As a former President @tcdsu I am very proud of Trinity Students Union taking this action.
We all have a duty to protest & act against the Genocide being committed against the people of Gaza
#GazaGenocide

[Muir @truepersephone]

If, like myself, you've long since graduated from Trinity and can only wistfully follow the encapment from afar, here's a simple action you can take to support the great work happening. Took me less than five minutes.

[Shinyfluff 🌿🪬 @ShinyFluffdnd]

@tcddublin As a @tcdalumni I support the Trinity Student Union @TCDSU_President and their actions in support of Palestine and in support of student rights 🙏

For Trinners alumns! @whoamireland

[Jack Boag @sodabrunette]

College is very keen on alumni being considered part of the Trinity community, and that gives us a right, but also a duty, to show solidarity when students finally fight both against punitive College policy and for what is right morally in relation to Gaza.

Up the students!

Re-upping this

[Maeve Richardson @MaeveRichardson]

In 2018, TCDSU occupied the Dining Hall, resulting in the prevention of a €450 Exams Resit Fee. As well as rent freezes and more throughout the years.

Students’ Unions always have and will continue to organise to win for their students.
