Poll: Most U.S. College Students Reject Disrupting Campus to Protest Israel
(Algemeiner) Dion J. Pierre - Most American college students reject their classmates' flagrant rule breaking and extreme tactics to protest Israel's war with Hamas in Gaza, according to a new survey conducted by North Dakota State University's Institute for Global Innovation and Growth. 59% of 2,159 respondents, drawn from 466 colleges and universities, said students do not have a right to occupy administrative buildings. 80% disagreed that it is appropriate to "shout down" speakers whose opinions about the war are contrary to theirs. 73% said they would not disrupt classes to protest, and only 13% have participated in campus demonstrations related to the conflict.
