Northwestern Cuts Deal with Encampment Organizers, Establishes Full-Ride Scholarship for Palestinian Students

By ZACH KESSEL
April 30, 2024 12:56 PM

After five days of anti-Israel demonstrators occupying Deering Meadow on Northwestern University’s campus, Northwestern president Michael Schill and the rest of the university’s leadership decided to accede to several of the protesters’ demands.

While not committing to divesting its endowment from companies that do business in Israel and ending partnerships with Israeli institutions, the university released a list of concessions in a celebratory statement Monday afternoon in exchange for the removal of the encampment on the lawn.

Most notable among those concessions is a promise to offer full-ride scholarships to Palestinian students and guaranteed faculty jobs for Palestinian academics…

Israel’s Chicago consulate posted a statement on X as well, writing that the university had “declared itself a safe space for Antisemitism.”

“We are appalled by Northwestern’s decision to turn its back on Jewish and Israeli students who have been targets of hateful harassment and intimidation,” the consulate wrote. “This decision rewards the pro-terror, anti-Israel, and anti-American aggressors on campus. This appeasement agreement is a dark day in Northwestern history.”

That university needs to be closed and bulldozed. Replace it with a nice wilderness park or something useful.

Many universities need this done to them. They are bastions of anti American, anti semitism, pro communist propaganda.

An outhouse would be more worthy.

This is just them proudly admitting they support the destruction of western civilization and want to teach their students to do it.

The once elite universities are becoming a lot less elite. State colleges and universities are looking a lot more desirable, and a lot less expensive.
