Have you seen their latest list of whacko demands?  One of them is a statue of Jonathan Butler in the middle of the quad.  But the REALLY crazy one is allowing any minority student (and ONLY minority students) to declare "academic bankruptcy", meaning that they can wipe out an entire semester's worth of grades without penalty.

Ridiculous.  Or, well if you do that, then no one can hire you based on your degree for 7 years, right?  that would be fair I think.

This letter from that link is really good, and sums up that it's a few selfish individuals

Wow, I didn't know there were only 11 of them.  Unreal.

But I do feel sympathy for them.  It was so unfortunate that the Paris shooting cost them the attention they deserved.
