>Some schools don't allow other students to take over the campus and prevent other paying students from access or attending class.

People hanging out on lawns don't prevent anyone from attending class. The encampments have been, to the best of my knowledge, entirely peaceful. Certainly the one at Columbia has been.

You can disagree with the protestors. You can think they're trespassing or that they're being too disruptive. But you don't get to lie on my watch.

A pro-Israel mob attacked the encampment at UCLA with bludgeons and explosives last night.

The pro-Palestine protestors on campus have been, as far as I can tell, almost entirely peaceful everywhere in the country.

I'm getting awfully tired of the way college students are alternatively treated as children or as adults based on what's rhetorically useful. These are full-grown human beings. They don't need parents to tell them what to do, professors to tell them what to think, or outside agitators to tell them how to protest.

Some students will look at what's happening on these campuses and be disgusted by the protestors. Some of them will be proud of them. Some of them will be frightened of the crackdown from administration. Some of them will take it as a challenge.
