New York University Law School has enforced measures against students protesting the Gaza war, labeling 31 as 'personae non grata'. These students participated in sit-ins, which have historically been allowed, yet the university now cites vague policies to investigate them for disruptive behavior. Critics argue this enforcement is selective and targets specific types of speech, particularly pro-Palestine protests. The controversial actions reflect a broader concern about free speech on campus and the arbitrary application of conduct policies that may inhibit student activism.
The school's policies are vague and arbitrary enough to be wielded in any situation against any kind of speech the university looks down upon, particularly pro-Palestine speech.
The school explicitly outlines sit-ins as permitted, but as soon as they don't like the sit-in or protest happening, they tell people to stop.
Students are barred from using or accessing university facilities during the investigation into their protests against the war in Gaza.
The library sit-in location that NYU is calling 'disruptive' has been used in the past as a site of protest for various causes.
