The entitled Harvard students who participated in the pro-Hamas campus encampments are in for a rude awakening that their mommy and daddy cannot bail them out of.
Harvard’s Administrative Board has rejected a recommendation from faculty members to allow the 13 students who protested against Israel to graduate with their classmates.
The seniors will not be allowed to graduate even if they are in good standing or have never faced a prior disciplinary action during their four years at the Ivy League school.
115 faculty members attended an annual FAS degree meeting where they argued against withholding degrees from the students. They claimed they had the authority to add the seniors back onto the graduating list because they believed that disciplinary actions were subject to approval by the FAS. However, the board said that the FAS does not have the authority that the faculty members think it has.
Just three days earlier, the students were notified of disciplinary charges from the board. They will be allowed to participate in the graduating ceremony but not receive their degrees.
On Thursday, pro-Hamas students marched out of Harvard’s commencement ceremony in protest.

Not only did the pro-Hamas rabble march out of Commencement, but they staged a vile pro-palestine “people’s commencement” in Harvard-Epworth Methodist “Church”!

I will be working to restore at least some of Harvard’s honor, as best I can! Lord help me! Amen!
They'll just get jobs in AOC's office instead.
If they are indeed a private institution, no reason for any taxpayer grants.
The day that stops, the country will start to seriously improve.
In this case, these 15 students will suffer no significant punishment or even inconvenience. They will for cosmetic reasons not get their sheepskins, but soon after, secretly, they will, with congratulations from their alma mater.
Of course. There are always lawsuits.
Don’t reinstate the 13. Rather, fire the 115.
I work with a young Jewish kid who said he ‘’doesn’t believe in guns’’.
I said “Your enemies do’’. I told him “You’d climb into a boxcar thinking you were going to a summer camp’’.
Nah; carve it into their foreheads with a Bowie Knife, just like Aldo Raine did!
Racism and antisemitism should be expensive.
$320,000 in tuition and boarding wasted for no degree.
Not that easy to do. The best the school can do is pretend to punish them, perhaps get an alum to represent them and get some money to kick back to the school. These Narrative groups have lawyers on retainer.
