Ice Wanderer as others have posted may the new medication help with the pain in your shoulder due to arthritis. May you see an increase over time in the shoulders range of motion. The administration of Vassar College invited students to be present at the upcoming Trustee-Investor Responsibility meeting. Also going to establish a group of facility and students to purpose curricular innovations around topics of Peace- Conflict studies and for Middle East Studies. The article on my newspaper's website is from the Poughkeepsie Journal newspaper author/reporter Mickie Hayes wrote the article. I believe the Poughkeepsie Journal and my daily newspaper Times Herald Record are both connected to the USA Today news network. I will leave a link below for you and others who maybe interest can find/read news story.
Eddie sorry to hear you are having computer problems have you by chance make any recent changes to or installed new programs. if so they may not be communicating with your internet service provider properly. this is just my humble opinion I think many of the students do not support a terrorist group/terrorism but are upset with the actions taken by Israel against people living in the Gaza strip in general. Since this conflict started back in October there have been actions taken by both Hamas and Israel which have heightened/the tension between these two groups just like in previous conflicts/wars since the creation of country of Israel after World War Two. Colleges in difficult place as most encourage freedom of speech and open thinking so it becomes a balance of what is acceptable under the rules colleges may have in place regarding student and faculty behavior. Once again my humble opinion also today's students have so many sources to find news stories where during the Vietnam War protests of the 1960-70's you had a much smaller number of print.Radio and Television news choices and much of the news about the war was censored before being released to the public. I believe Vietnam was the first war in united states history where news correspondents with embedded with combat troops and you received live footage at times which I'm sure the U.s Military and government did not want public to see some of the things happening. We also need to remember today's college students are the grandchildren of the Vietnam protestor and have heard their grandparents stories plus learn about the war in school social studies/history classes.
I respect everyone's viewpoints and realize they may differ from mine . Hence why we avoid politics and some other topics on this thread.
Wallyworld I agree with your words once things turn violent or disturb the normal daily activities at a college there is a problem and protestor should expect to face repercussions for their actions. Also what is considered hate speech or actions which may violate certain laws. I hope you had a good ride today.
Hunts2long may your ankle be feeling better. A safe journey to-from NYC wished for the two of you .
I hope we can discuss current events peacefully and keep this thread form being locked down.
