More than 70 students at an Ivy League university are facing disciplinary actions for their roles in a violent library takeover and spring encampment. Two-thirds will be suspended between one to three years, with the majority receiving two-year suspensions. The institution emphasizes the importance of maintaining a respectful academic environment and upholding policies. The University Judicial Board's swift action reflects a commitment to addressing violations related to disruptions that impacted students' academic experiences during finals.
Over 70 students are set to be punished for their involvement in the disruptive Butler Library chaos that unfolded on May 7, 2024, as well as last year's encampment.
Roughly two-thirds of those punished will receive suspensions between one and three years, with the majority facing two-year suspensions due to their actions.
Our institution must focus on delivering on its academic mission. To create a thriving academic community, there must be respect for each other and for the institution's fundamental work.
Disruptions to academic activities are in violation of University policies, and such violations will necessarily generate consequences, as evidenced by the University Judicial Board's actions.
