The Cornell campus currently is in turmoil over two racial incidents. In one, a student shouted "build a wall" near the Latino Living Center. At least two reports (Campus Reform and The New American) claim the student was Hispanic and said it to mock Trump. The Cornell administration has declined to confirm or deny those reports, referring me instead to prior general statements from university officials. I may have more on that in a subsequent post.

Mike Isaacson is a professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, a part of the City University of New York. He is openly pro-Antifa violence and has been suspended following a series of tweets in which he joked about police deaths.

Earlier this week, Harvard's Kennedy School of Government offered fellowships to former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer and convicted spy, Chelsea Manning. To Harvard's shock, the blowback for offering a spy and traitor a fellowship was swift and intense. Douglas W. Elmendorf, Dean of Harvard Kennedy School, issued a statement rescinding the offer to Manning. While the fellowship offer was withdrawn, Elmendorf indicated Manning's campus speaking invitation was not.
