CLEVELAND — The academic future is uncertain for some Case Western Reserve students involved in a pro-Palestinian encampment earlier this month. While the university temporarily withholds some diplomas, one group is planning an alternate commencement ceremony.
As campus protests elsewhere around the country turned violent, Jad’s parents said his involvement at CWRU made them concerned for his safety and academic future. The Huron County couple said their perspective shifted when they saw the demonstration in person. On Tuesday, the university issued persona non grata letters to several dozen protesters, barring them from campus and temporarily withholding diplomas from graduating students.
According to the statement, decisions on the awarding of degrees would be made once the conduct process was completed.
