Shame on Columbia admin, the mayor and the NYPD

Columbia faculty statement on imminent raid on student sit-in: 'The University President, her senior staff, and the Board of Trustees will bear responsibility for any injuries that may occur during any police action on our campus.' 2/2

According to Columbia by-laws, police are not supposed to be allowed on campus without the consent of the faculty. President Shafik does *not* have our approval for this raid; she has not even asked our approval. This promises to be a horrifying dereliction of faculty governance

We spent 4+ hours waiting cuffed in the bus blocking grand army traffic because none of the dozens of cops knew how to drive it! Solidarity w/ the bus drivers! ✊🏻

Happy Passover from the Jews of NYC.
