I agree with him.
Colleges are for learning.
Take the topics/issues that are of interest & chew them up. Debate them.
Offer ideas, listen to other ideas.
Ask yourself, what could improve this?
What can I do to help?
Protests & anger fan the fire, that doesn't offer space to find common ground.
This has become all about the protestors behavior, NOT what could help those suffering & starving.
Once they destroy property & make others feel threatened, they LOSE any high ground.
They look self-indulged & thoughtless.
And they have broken laws!
Wilson, the student with Jewish family members who tried to stop the barricading of Hamilton Hall, said he understood the rationale for the pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campus but believes that the building occupation was not productive.
“I totally understand why they would be extraordinarily sad and angry about the loss of life in Gaza,” Wilson said of the broader protest movement.
He added that he believes a college campus is a place where the conflict should be analyzed and debated, and people’s voices should be heard. “That was not happening with the mob tactics, the smashing of university property and intimidating students,” he said.
Do something positive.
