The chant: "Tom Rochon. No confidence" echoed across campus Wednesday, shouted by at least a thousand students who took part in a "Solidarity Walk Out" at Ithaca College.
The demonstration was a response to ongoing concerns of racial injustice on campus.
"We stand here in solidarity," a woman standing with POC at IC (People of Color at IC) said into a microphone Wednesday in front of hundreds. "Our hearts are heavy with the pain of Mizzou and Yale and Smith and every person of color on a college campus simply because of the color of their skin, the texture of their hair or their ancestry. This a problem of the nation. However, how can a campus dedicated to preparing us for the real world not actively foster growth to our consciousness of oppression and privilege?"
Many on campus â students and faculty included â have called for a vote of no confidence for the college's president, Tom Rochon.

Here’s the apology that’s not being accepted.
Apparently at some event females students were referred to as ‘girls.’ That’s now apparently a violation of the safe space deserving firing someone...

“No confidence”? What? Hey, kids, the college president is the corporation’s boss, and you’re the customers. You’re welcome to spend your money elsewhere.
Boy, things went really down hill after we put a negro in the White House.
These places are 100% Democrat controlled and still they are complaining about racism.
It sounds silly, but there is truth in it. The DNC is race-obsessed. Always have been, and remain so today.
If you are similarly race obsessed, you belong in the DNC. Thats your party. Anything they control is going to be race obsessed. Its in the DNA.
If you don’t give two hoots about race, you won’t be happy in the DNC. You won’t be happy being part of anything they run. Not saying you won’t be happy, because you’re probably a happy guy. But you aren’t going to fit in with anything they’re selling.
They are collapsing the university system. When they are through with it, no one will want anything to do with it, and they’ll abandon it and come after whatever we build to replace it.
It couldn’t happen to better people than college presidents.
They DID build that.
Is it possible this is a good thing? The Revolution always eats its own.
If the rise and fall of empires now move more quickly, who is to say that revolutions don’t burn out faster?
Exactly what I said.

In ITHACA? City of EVIL?.............................
What do you get when you reward bad behavior?
the change they need is a few stiff jabs to the face in rapid procession
If I attended one of these schools that is giving it all up to the children, I believe I would demand a refund of my tuition and fees, if not sue them for damages, as well, for the wasted time, room and board, etc. Possibly throw in a few grand for the psychological damage done to me by not having an administration in place that was strong enough to repel this kind of crap so I could go to classes and get my degree without all of the disruption and distraction.
Remember when there WAS racial injustice on campus?
What are these idiots going to do when they are in the real world and no one is impressed by their outrage?
It appears that the children temporarily enjoying the rarified air of academia are in a total disconnect with the realities of the outside world.
Perhaps the occupied territories mentioned in the first paragraph of the diatribe refers to that outside world.
I believe the globalists and activists are fabricating all this stuff to take attention away from the Islamic Invasion Of Europe that is coming to America next.
Beach Boys, “Surf’s Up”, 1971
“Student Demonstration Time”
Starting out with Berkeley Free Speech
And later on at People’s Park
The winds of change fanned into flames
Student demonstrations spark
Down to Isla Vista where police felt so harassed
They called the special riot squad of the L. A. County Sheriff
Well there’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Student demonstration time
The violence spread down South to where Jackson State brothers
Learned not to say nasty things about Southern policemen’s mothers
Nothing much was said about it and really next to nothing done
The pen is mightier than the sword, but no match for a gun
Well there’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Well there’s a riot going on
‘Cause it’s student demonstration time
America was stunned on May 4, 1970
When rally turned to riot up at Kent State University
They said the students scared the Guard
Though the troops were battle dressed
Four martyrs earned a new degree
The Bachelor of Bullets
I know we’re all fed up with useless wars and racial strife
But next time there’s a riot, well, you best stay out of sight
Well there’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Well there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration time
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
It’s student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
It’s student demonstration
Stay away when there’s a riot going on
Student demonstration
The college is racist as are most. Racism is the belief that other races are inferior to your own. This college has special classes and even special majors devoid of any academic rigor set up specifically because they need diversity, but do not believe the diversier people can handle real classes and have any reasonable expectation of graduating with a real degree, because they believe the super diversy people are too stupid, and the administrators will look bad if 90% of the enhanced-melanin student body drops out before graduation.
