It's a 'symbolic hunger strike'. When they get hungry, they leave and someone takes their place.
Wait, what?
To: Snickering Hound
Yep.
They are on a hunger strike between meals.
Morons.
To: Cowgirl of Justice
Yeah, who’s catering the event?

For Part II of their Grown Toddler Temper Tantrum protest, I would like to offer the suggestion for them to also hold their breath until they turn blue.
For those idiots participating in this joke they may want to be reminded that they have lost any credibility whatsoever for the rest of their useless lives.

I have always thought that a “hunger strike” was the most stupid of all protests....
Personally, I really don’t care if they don’t eat...
To me, it’s kinda like shooting your self in the foot...

A real hunger strike is saying to the world that you believe so strongly about an issue that you will kill yourself slowly to get your way. This says that you feel so strongly about an issue that you are willing to get a bit peckish after lunch by skipping your single serve package of Teddy Grahams mid afternoon snack.
Time to fire up the grill upwind of the protest.

Yale admin should just sit down in front of them with fried chicken, potatoes and gravy, cherry pies and just start an eating orgy....
Of course, wait until the “hunger strike” has been going on for at least a day and a half...*ROFL*

I’ve gone without eating for two weeks.
Wasn’t bad at all. Watched way too many cooking shows though.
I’ll take interest when they haven’t eaten for a month.

I’ll say it again, we need Before and After weigh-in ceremonies for these so very serious displays of heartfelt principles.

I’ve got a very simple solution...
Take half of the professor’s pay and give it on a proportional basis to undergraduates performing the professor’s job. Costs Yale nothing, those doing the job of someone else gain compensation equal to what the professor earns, and might even encourage professors to perform their own work.
Of course, they’d balk at such a solution (both the professors and undergraduates) as a) professors would take a huge pay cut, and b) undergraduates wouldn’t get the ‘professional rate’ they ‘deserve.’
