  1. So I had a couple hours between my #classes (#University) so I went to one of the lounges (there are several around #campus) and took a #nap on a couch. I woke up to a suprise, Siobhan from my study group asleep snuggled against me on the couch. So I woke her with a #kiss. Later after our afternoon classes she's coming back to my dorm room. 🥰

  10. Among other commitments it also requires #Northwestern to revoke the so-called #DeeringMeadow agreement, which it signed in April 2024 in exchange for pro-#Palestinian #protesters ending their tent encampment on campus.

    During negotiations, interim #university president Henry Bienen said Northwestern refused to cede control over #hiring, #admissions, or its #curriculum. “I would not have signed this agreement without provisions ensuring that is the case,” he said.

  11. The #Trump admin had cut off $790M in #grants in a standoff that contributed to #university #layoffs & the resignation in Sept of #Northwestern president Michael Schill. The admin claimed the school had not done enough to fight Trump’s definition of #antisemitism [aka #FreeSpeech #Palestinian #HumanRights #protests].

    Under the agreement announced Friday night, Northwestern will make the payment to the #US #Treasury over the next 3 years [notably not exceeding Trump’s term].

  14. The president of #NorthwesternUniversity, Michael H. Schill, announced Thursday that he would resign, after a difficult tenure that included attacks from #Republicans in #Congress & cuts by the #Trump admin that forced the #university to lay off hundreds.

    #Northwestern became a target this year of Trump ofcls, who cut nearly $800 million of the university’s federal #research #funding, after months of intense scrutiny from Republicans.

  16. #WashU Law School faculty, students, and alumni issue open letter condemning the #university's violent and unwarranted response to peaceful #protest in support of #Palestine:

    “Resorting first to heavy-handed enforcement tactics, rather than engaging in discourse, is antithetical to the core purpose of education. It erodes the foundations of a healthy democratic society.”
