Syracuse University has placed more than 30 students on interim suspension after they began occupying its main administrative building in a protest of on-campus bias incidents over the past several months.

The demonstrators, led by a group of Black students who call their group  #NotAgainSU, entered the school’s Crouse-Hinds Hall Monday night (February 17) and refused to leave after the building closed. The site is the location of the offices of Chancellor Kent Syverud and where other administration officials are located.

They were reacting to the university’s response to more than two dozen racist and anti-Semetic occurrences that took place at Syracuse since November, according to the school’s student newspaper The Daily Orange. They are also calling for the resignation of four top SU officials.

In a statement released prior to the protest, #NotAgainSU again called for the resignations of Syverud, Dolan Evanovich, Senior Vice President for Enrollment and the Student Experience, Department of Public Safety Chief Bobby Maldonado, and Associate DPS Chief John Sardino.

"This building houses the enrollment, admissions, and administration offices, which are directly responsible for the systemic problems we gather here to protest,"...

#NotAgainSU’s 23rd demand is for DPS officers to stop carrying firearms. Public safety officers carry firearms when on duty, according to DPS’ website. Instead of DPS officers carrying firearms, the Syracuse Police Department should be contacted if firearms are necessary, the movement said.

Shouldn’t they be studying for their $40,000+ Per annum  education?

Oh lemme guess, they are studying the lesser disciplines- you know the ones for which there are no jobs.  Maybe study harder then?
