If on private property free speech is not guaranteed.
It's up to the owners of the property.
At this time, masked protesters remain inside Milbank Hall. We do not
know if all individuals involved are members of the Barnard community.
If they do not agree to leave the building by 9:30 PM, Barnard will be
forced to consider additional, necessary measures to protect our
campus, Levine concluded.

The University of Maryland has agreed to pay Palestine Legal and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) $100,000 after the university first defended, but then briefly tried to reschedule, a rally on the anniversary of Hamass October 7, 2023 attacks by a campus group that advocates the right of Palestinians to carry out armed struggle.

CAIR noted that the Maryland public institution agreed to pay the anti-Israel group even as the Trump administration has extracted massive payments from other universities for failing to protect Jews from antisemitism on campus.

Pines, who is Black, advising that if the University was going to permit SJPs event to go forward, then my Klan Rally with sheets and a noose are also approved.
Pines cancelled all events on October 7, not because of his aversion to the anti-Israel event, but because of what he suggested was anti-black racism and threats by Jewish people, requiring the cancellation of events to protect the safety of the Palestine activists, according to prior Daily Wire reporting and CAIRs summary of the lawsuit.

But the postponement of all October 7 gatherings on campus was short-lived. Despite Pines general sympathy to the group, SJP sued his university in federal court, backed by lawyers from CAIR.

An application for reserving campus space, filed August 1, contained only a nine-word description of the event (One year since the genocidal bombing campaign in Gaza), according to documents obtained under public records laws, and Jewish critics have raised questions about whether the group failed to properly comply with the universitys rules for getting events approved, which would have given Pines a mechanism for blocking the event.

UMD SJP is a registered University student organization in good standing which has had more than 100 events on campus since October 7, 2023, for which it consistently followed the Universitys policies and procedures governing such events, it added.

A top senator this week called for CAIRs tax-exempt status to be examined due to its ties to terrorists.

If you're going to post articles without attribution, would you at least include ALL of the words?
This article is missing all kinds of words and phrases to the point that I have to guess what a lot of it is trying to say.
Or maybe the missing words are due to this error message from the beginning of the post, which would imply that your newsgroup reader is broken.
