Allege school officials have ‘militarized’ campus, ‘brutally punished’ student protesters
First it was Columbia University students — now “hundreds” of the school’s faculty and staff are planning to go on strike unless officers from the New York Police Department vacate the campus.
The strike will be limited, however; the Columbia Spectator reports the potential strikers still will “do work that directly serves students.”
This means professors won’t “withhold grades, recommendation letters, or other ‘student-serving’ work.”
Those planning to strike said in a Friday press release that the NYPD “has created an unsafe work environment,” most especially for members of minority communities “who are disproportionately profiled by police.”
