Hundreds of students, faculty and staff members, flooded Ithaca College’s academic quad Wednesday afternoon protesting I.C. President Tom Rochon and his handling of racial incidents on campus and in solidarity with campuses including University of Missouri and Yale University.
Urging a vote of no confidence, protesters gathered following a month of racial tensions sparked by a number of incidents occurring since the start of the academic year. At approximately 1 p.m., students began to gather. Within 30 minutes, hundreds of students had flooded Ithaca College’s Academic Quad.
A number of students spoke against the administration, naming Rochon the leader and perpetuator of “a broken system†that pretends that I.C. is diverse.
“We have no desire to work with this broken system,†a student said into the microphone.
Following student speeches, the crowd of protesters walked across the quad, guided by student leaders and shouting, “Tom Rochon. No Confidence.â€
After students spread and laid down on the wet pavement, they fell silent for 20 minutes at 2 p.m. The eerie silence was broken at 2:20 p.m. as hundreds streamed back towards Freedom Rock in front of the student center.
“We have power,†students chanted, in a roar that filled the quad.
Students also circulated papers titled “The Case Against Tom Rochon,†which list seven grievances against him, ranging from “his disregard for minority community members†to “his questionable ethics.â€
“When asked to propose solutions, Rochon fails as a former scholar to conduct even the most basic research by drawing on eight years of reports and recommendations that involved countless hours of work by students, faculty and staff, or by accessing the many demands that have been addressed to him and gone unanswered,†the paper reads.
Close down the colleges! All of them.
Good ones. Im a Pensacola alumni.

And don’t forget to toss out all white students too.
What these “1960s” of which you speak? I thought that there was calendar reform and that whole decade was left out ... I certainly don’t remember any of it ...
About a year ago we were driving through the area and when we entered Ithaca, I said in the car, “We are entering the ‘City of Evil’”
Needless to say, the rest of my family in the car, looked at me with the most confused of looks.
Did something happen or is this lefties upset about nothing..
Hmmm- liberals leaving colleges in droves- I knew there had to be a good story today!
I don’t know if Berea College takes Fed money but they don’t charge tuition.
Where’s S I Hayakawa when you need him?
Agree!
LOL!
It's usually the unemployables who campaign for socialism.
These kids are just a bunch of inflated mediocrities. I see drugs in their future.
I still have his book on Rhetoric
Cool. Burn down the University, you scum Stalinists and Nazis. Then march into the hinterlands where you can be properly disposed of, you 50 IQ apes.
Racial Discrimination Protests Ignite at Colleges Across the U.S.
By ANEMONA HARTOCOLLIS and JESS BIDGOODNOV. 11, 2015
The passion that ousted the heads of the University of Missouri after protests over racial discrimination on campus is spreading to other colleges across the country, turning traditional fall semesters into a period of intense focus on racial misunderstanding and whether activism stifles free speech.
