  • TBH, the stories regarding Columbia feel muddled, perhaps purposefully.

    I know when there were high-profile protests at my old university, Mizzou, several years ago, the most controversial aspect was the occupation of some public areas of the campus and the deliberate exclusion of some members of the student body from accessing them. (And in one case a professor was filmed demanding help to physically remove people from the occupied space.) In the case of Columbia University, that’s been one of the sticking points, and it would seem Columbia has a legitimate basis for punishing students if they too did this. (ie, protesters barring Jews from certain parts of campus.)

    That said, from what I’ve read, the main sources for those allegations were Columbia University and the Trump Admin, two sources I’m not particularly inclined to believe.

    I honestly don’t know what to think.

    I actually keep a velcro wrap in the backpack I take everywhere because between decades of being a dancer, soccer player, and a roller derby skater and the injuries I had doing those things, coupled with my age, it’s eminently possible for me to just ‘step wrong’ and have to wrap up an ankle.
