“university had to shut down or move financial aid, academic advising, and disability services due to the occupation”
The students recently chained the doors to the building shut. I’m guessing that was the tipping point.

VIDEO: Police arrest Johns Hopkins protesters upset over ICE, school police
Police in Baltimore arrested at least seven individuals after protesters upset with the school’s contract with ICE and private police force took over a Johns Hopkins University building.
Some of the people arrested were students, but others were community members, according to The Daily Caller News Foundation. Sit-ins at JHU’s main administration building had occurred for a month beforehand, but protesters obscured security cameras and bound doors shut in May.
The university had to shut down or move financial aid, academic advising, and disability services due to the occupation.
“This is an effort to protect black, brown, queer and all marginalized people who Hopkins is actively endangering,” JHU student Turquoise Baker said, according to The Baltimore Sun.

Cattle prods and public whippings might inhibit their selfish impositions against civilization.
About time.
Now expel those students!
How much street cred does one get from a tire track tattoo? I miss the days when Darwin was a part of the curriculum.
There is no way that I could possibly be in the higher ed environment or be a police officer with my temperament… Those people are a task and a half.
