    When it comes to the protests against Israel’s genocide, the track record of US universities is not good. Universities have been so terrified of losing lucrative Israel-connected sponsorship that they are the first to call for harsh punishments for the students. So I wouldn’t count on university administrations to push back hard against this assault on free speech, rather than taking it out on the students.
