Surely the dude with gray hair and glasses and the woman in the scarf next to him aren’t students.. The others are though.

Not an Ivy League school — Vassar is a “Seven Sisters” college. It’s coed now, but I can’t imagine what self-respecting heterosexual male would be caught dead enrolling there.
To: airborne
Apparently so. And Johnson’s father was a professor at Vassar.

This will be a massive eye-opener for anyone in the Vassar orbit who was dead certain that Trump alone was responsible for building the detention centers.
