The Campus Protests: A View from the Ground

Season 4 Episode 5

As campus protests in support of Palestine are met with often violent and repressive crackdowns, we talk to three faculty members, all AAUP members, who report on what's happening at their respective campuses.  We speak to Annelise Orleck at Dartmouth College, whose arrest at a May 1 protest at Dartmouth garnered significant press coverage, Todd Wolfson at Rutgers University, where faculty supported students as they came to a negotiated solution to end their encampment, and Nivedita Majumdar at John Jay College in the City University of New  York system, where 173 people were arrested during protest at the the end of April.  AAUP president Irene Mulvey also weighs in on the ongoing crackdown and threats to higher ed.

The episode is hosted by Mariah Quinn, AAUP's digital organizer.
