Student Activists Hold Solidarity Rally

Student Activists Hold Solidarity Rally

Following the Legutko fiasco, students organized a march from the Queer Studies house to Wilson Hall (it was ultimately held inside due to weather). The rally was in response to the various troubling occurrences on campus during the time (Legutko, Nazi question on chemistry midterm, joke about slave ships, etc.). Activists included both students and professors. The goal of the event was not only to provide the group with an open mic to voice their concerns/feelings but also to uplift various marginalized identities in order to "build bridges" across different groups of people.

"Another speaker addressed the college's response to a recent chemistry test question that asked students to calculate a lethal dose of the gas used in Nazi gas chambers. 'Issuing administrative condemnation is not the same thing as supporting the Jewish community', the student said."
