This is how leftist brains work. They are going to protest someone else actions by making your life miserable or forcing you to protest against your will.

Sounds like a good way to get rid of the commie professors.

How does making students wait for a final grade have any affect or connection to the conflict

Wait. Their plan is to punish the students because UNC broke-up their protest of Israel's actions in Gaza?

I'm not following the logic.

Whatever the cause, it makes no sense to do something to cause harm indiscriminately and not even targeted at whoever you are trying to coerce or punish.

If someone is on the fence or doesn't care about your cause has their graded withheld, you are just motivating them to support your opponent.

Study abroad in Palestine.

They are so civilized.

Probably have an LGBTQ platoon in Hamas.

They could say, “Strap-on, we ridin’,” as they mount there camels.

The inmates are running the asylum, and it is becoming more outrageous every day.

It's time to abolish "Tenure" privileges. All that tenured professors have done is radicalize kids because they know they can't be fired. They've filled society with anti-american rhetoric, safe spaces, and transgenderism nonsense.

quote:

Will instructors in UNC Faculty and Staff for Justice in Palestine hold those final grades back from the university and risk facing sanctions? Palm said Monday the group will support the call issued by UNC’s students who believe their free speech and peace was infringed upon, saying the faculty are “prepared to do everything that it takes.” “Forty-thousand dead in Gaza, a million displaced, famine conditions, and students have been arrested and suspended,” Palm listed off. “The matter of grades is an inconvenience compared to the violence that UNC administrators have invited onto our campus.”
