NYU Protest Update: Negotiators Reported Suspended

Our Man on the Outside tells us, "Student occupiers claim they sent a five-person delegation to negotate with the administration this morning, and the students were immediately suspended and not permitted to return to the occupation." Oops! We thought suspensions were out. (Update: OMotO says the suspended students will get a "tribunal.") Also, "Cops are arriving and setting up lots more barricades, Looks like they're preparing to storm the citadel."

Take Back NYU says the administration cut off their internet and electrical outlets inside Kimmel, so obviously the feed is down. (They're phoning messages to outside sources and having their communiques posted through them).

A support rally has been called outside Kimmel for... right now.

Update: NYU Local twitters: "non nyu students have left the building. nyu students suspended... full judicial process. this shit looks like its over... nyu students still in the building... non nyu students granted amnesty."

Agreed. People who stand up for their beliefs have no place at an upstanding university like NYU. How dare they back up these beliefs with action. What do they think this is, America or something?

I'm an NYU student at the College of Sadist...I mean...Dentistry and the one thing that i don't get is that how come out of all these other schools with the big names like Columbia and Stony Brook it's always NYU that's got a bunch of suicide cases on its hands EVERY SINGLE YEAR and students rallying against the school?!?!?! Other than a bunch of asskissers, all other NYU studetns dislike NYU. However, most are afraid to speak up against the school and the ones who do speak up are punished. The administration with their fake smile tells you that if there is anything about the school that you think needs to be changed you can tell them about it. They'll pretend like they care but when you do tell them that their system needs to be modified, they'll turn around and make things worse for you...if anything, they'll try to get you to drop out of school by making your life a living hell, if they can't just kick you out. Believe me! I KNOW what I'm talking about.

@driveninsanebyny: nobody forces these kids to go to NYU. here's a suggestion: of the $50K it costs per year to go to nyu, take $10k, go to a community college and send the other $40K to the cause of your choice. problems solved.

This is just sad. A pathetic excuse for a poorly constructed and unfounded protest. These fools are just trying to be "cool" by being the outcasts. Cute. Too bad people like this are allowed to breed. Stupidity should be a crime.
