i know what i’m celebrating tomorrow

[Sawsan Morrar @sawsan24]

This should be national news: @sacstate’s president @DrLukeWood said, “As far as I'm concerned, the encampment can last as long as it continues to be what it is, which is a positive demonstration of free speech.”

[Marius Kothor, Ph.D. @MariusKothor]

This moment is very clarifying.
The connections between carceral states, academic institutions, and global imperial projects is in sharp focus.

[American Association of University Professors @AAUP]

Happy #MayDay! We stand with workers worldwide today (and every day). In the current climate in academia, it's always good to have some resources on political interference in #highered on hand. More here: https://t.co/quaGeD5Wu7

Princeton has arrested and evicted one third of its graduating African American studies majors. It has also locked the doors of Toni Morrison Hall, where the department is housed and which is right next to the encampment. Super racist stuff guys!

[American Association of University Professors @AAUP]

The anger behind the right wing rhetoric against DEI, CRT, “woke,”etc is manifesting on college campuses right now in the form of physical violence against students & faculty.

[@dylanmharris.bsky.social @dylanmattharris]

this moment is really putting into perspective what ‘the point’ of the university is. a space to learn, grow, and conceive of what’s good and right, not a space to simply train for a job or to exploit students for debt money.

[American Association of University Professors @AAUP]

It’s come to this…

“Can you call the philosophy department and tell them I’ve been arrested?”

[American Association of University Professors @AAUP]

"The AAUP condemns in the strongest possible terms the crackdown on peaceful dissent occurring this week at @Columbia, @nyuniversity, & other universities nationwide."

- statement from AAUP president Irene Mulvey

[@dylanmharris.bsky.social @dylanmattharris]

the hollow promise of the neoliberal university is on poetic display here.

[Sara Smith @GeogSara]

Universities sell “global” experience but are in a shambles when students assert global solidarities or acknowledge the historical and ongoing global inequalities that are manifest in the establishment and maintenance of the university itself. https://t.co/FsLLJiMvX6
