3. My daughter is at one of the universities experiencing protests

The Jewish students were not allowed to hold events during the whole month of Ramadan, because it might upset the pro Palestinian students. A peaceful scheduled counter protest , no where near the pro Palestinian protest, was forced to end early for the same reason. Jewish students were not allowed on the quad by the free speech coordinator, they were not carrying signs or flags.

Students were forced to remove posts from their personal social media accounts because they were critical of the protesters. Meanwhile, my daughter posted a video of the students in the counter protest singing and has been doxed, attacked and threatened on social media with no response from the free speech coordinator.

Palestinian students are not the ones being restricted on campus.
