Brown University’s corporate board will vote on a proposal to divest from Israeli interests, the university announced Tuesday, a major victory for student protesters who have taken over dozens of college campuses nationwide.
Protesters at Brown will tear down their encampment at the center of campus and cease demonstrations through the end of the school year as part of an agreement reached Tuesday, University President Christina Paxson said.
“The devastation and loss of life in the Middle East has prompted many to call for meaningful change, while also raising real issues about how best to accomplish this,” Paxson wrote in a statement. “Brown has always prided itself on resolving differences through dialog, debate and listening to each other.”
“I cannot condone the encampment, which was in violation of University policies,” she continued. “Also, I have been concerned about the escalation in inflammatory rhetoric that we have seen recently, and the increase in tensions at campuses across the country. I appreciate the sincere efforts on the part of our students to take steps to prevent further escalation.”

Brown University will soon be changing its’ name to Yellow
Divest the Jihadi “Students”.
Christina Hull Paxson has served as Brown University’s 19th president and professor of economics and public policy since July 1, 2012.
Under Paxson’s leadership, Brown has fortified its standing as a leading research university [that’s a laugh] known for its excellence and innovation in undergraduate education, its transformational vision in fueling economic development through community and government partnerships, and its commitment to inclusion and access. [blah, blah, blah]
Nah. Green. Their flag is green. 🇸🇦
Like the townspeople cowering and peeking out from the edge of the barn door to see if Gary Cooper is going to stand up to the bad guys.
Just say no if the rules and regulations and edicts say you can’t trash buildings, say direct threats to Jewish students or stay in place blocking access after several warnings to disperse by the police.
The word is “no.”
The same thing happened in Europe back when.
Students wanted universities to get rid of the Oil stocks and the universities had to raise tuition to make up for the loss ,LOL
How many zeros were on that check to buy your spectacularly flaccid response to your campus brats, Ms. Paxson?
Even family guy mocked Brown university so it’s fitting
When I tell people at my job or or in the community they’re wrong I get told I’m mean. In this culture it is mean to tell people they’re wrong when they’re wrong- ripping off their employer or their customers or they’re a student blocking $90 k per year paying students from going to class
But it’s not mean to rip off the employer, the customer, the student It’s mean to tell the terrorist sympathizers they’re wrong but it’s not mean to be mean to the Israelis. Hamas is a state department declared enemy, terrorist org and Israel is classified as friendly by our state department
It’s part of why people hate trump. He’s mean
Who is he mean to. That
Doesn’t matter to my compadre suburban housewives. What makes these people so stupid. The suburban women?
The Ivy presidents- that’s easy. They’d Hamas sympathizing o b a m a appointees
Great post.
Someday we’ll have to show them “mean.” Not good little boys and girls.
Something I never learned until recently “You don’t need others’ approval.”
Hopefully, Brown Univ. will go down in bankruptcy. Then the other 7 “Ivy League” institutions of insanity will follow. Our country will be some much better off without them.
DEFUND NOW !
That is what it will take. They won’t change. This side will have to change. Trump shows how it’s done
She’s also Jewish. And that I just don’t understand.
The adults leading the way...
Kind of resembles Amy Klobuchar
