@preppedparent the FAQ on the CMC statement contains a pretty detailed explanation of CMC’s commitment to freedom of speech (which includes the freedom to hear a speaker) and the disciplinary process. They disciplined only 7 students out of 170. They did not discipline students who were protesting but not blocking access, The ones who received the year long suspension were leaders of the effort to remove security fencing and blockade all entrances/exits to the Athenaeum. To me this is no different than pro-life protesters outside a Planned Parenthood Clinic. They have the right to protest but not to block access to the clinic. Conor Friedersdorf, who is a Pomona graduate, interviewed Nana Gyamfi and discusses her arguments and why he disagrees in this recently published piece: https://www.theatlantic.com/amp/article/534114/. He thinks the year long suspensions were overly harsh.
