Students are pointing the finger at police, claiming their crackdown on anti-Israel protesters has left them 'irrevocably shaken.'

by JACKSON WALKER | The National DeskPro-Palestine student activists face off with New York Police Department officers during a raid on Columbia University's campus at the request of Columbia University President Minouche Shafik on Tuesday evening, April 30, 2024 in New York.

In an appeal to campus leaders, law students at the school allegedly said this and other police interventions on campus have made studying for exams impossible. The violence we witnessed last night has irrevocably shaken many of us on the Review,” the letter reads. “Many are unwell at this time and cannot study or concentrate while their peers are being hauled to jail.”Rutgers bends to pro-Palestinian protesters' demands, will discuss divesting from Israel

If exams can’t be canceled, students said they will settle for a pass/fail alternative. Many schools implement this alternative as a service to students during times of crisis, such as the onset of COVID-19 in 2020. In the alternative, making courses mandatory Pass/Fail would be the next most equitable solution,” students allegedly wrote. “Instituting an optional Pass/Fail policy is not really optional when employers will see that some students have grades and others do not. Even if they pledge to not take this grade disparity under consideration during their evaluation , this leaves room for the introduction of extreme bias into the hiring process.”to JD Advising.
