NY Times editorial calls out chaos, failed leadership at colleges: Led to fear, harassment of Jewish students

The New York Times editorial board criticized American university administrators on Saturday, accusing them of letting the anti-Israel protests get so out of hand that both Jewish students, faculty, and the protesters have been "harassed" and "directly endangered."

The editorial argued that though students have a right to free speech and protest, university leaders should step in when the disruptions get dangerous or threaten the academic freedom of students and faculty, stating that these leaders have failed in doing so.
