Love the tough guy act from a group of people on campus who don’t even do their jobs if it’s raining.
At UNB, professors and students were surveilled for Palestine solidarity because, per campus security, the university is the President’s “house.”
“If I tell my kids my kids you can’t do this, I don’t need to write it down… He’s the President and he can set the rules.”

This is obscene. Absolutely deranged what's become of our universities. They're all run by corporate villains now.

Rather than limiting or cutting ties with Israeli institutions (which play an important role in providing logistics, manpower, and research to support the genocide) UofT has intensified connections to and collaborations with Israel. See "Sparrows for Palestine" substack.com/home/post/p-... [1/3]
How embedded within UofT have partnerships with Israeli institutions become?
Quick answer: Very, very much.

The University of Toronto has made a consistent point of surveilling and disciplining faculty members critical of Israel's genocide in Gaza.
When you read this, it becomes very clear why that is.

NEW: While many academics worried about danger to free speech in higher ed during Trump admin's arrests of students for pro-Palestine speech, some liberal arts professors were supporting the groups looking to detain students...sometimes on their own campuses.

This is, frankly, an incredible piece that connects the carceral logic and violence of the border to the Israeli genocidal project in Gaza and beyond.
I am dead serious when I say anyone who is teaching in any of these areas needs to have this on the syllabus this year.

Truth - bring it!
Every single university administrator in Canada (and beyond) should be losing sleep over this.
Francesca Albanese's most recent report has profound implications for higher ed.
None is more serious than this: administrators are *personally accountable* under international law for complicity in genocide for institutional entanglements w/ Israel and military-industrial companies.

Last year our faculty association had a THREE HOUR meeting to debate why we should boycott/divest/sanction a country that is actively committing genocide.
It was not a great day to be an academic. And I won’t ever stop pushing us in higher ed to practice the values we teach.

The DOE says Columbia should lose its accreditation. They are of course wrong.
They are also right.
For @aljazeera.com, we argue that in systematically compromising the rights of anti-genocide students and faculty, universities like Columbia have violated the very terms that allow them to exist.
