At least 60 students received notices to appear in front of the Harvard College Administrative Board in connection with the demonstration that lasted nearly three weeks in Harvard Yard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Friday, the university suspended five students and placed 20 more on academic probation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cHarvard is not allowing me to graduate this semester for my participation in the encampment,\u201d Suhaas Bhat, a senior and Rhodes Scholar, told students at the start of the Class of 2024 Senior Talent Show.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI think it\u2019s a good time to think about what it means to go to this University and what it means to have freedom of speech and what our moral obligations are,\u201d Bhat said, presumably referring to Israel\u2019s war on Hamas while referencing civilian deaths.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The number of civilian deaths in the Gaza Strip is notoriously difficult to track, and the most prevalent estimates are based on unreliable information from Hamas. Earlier this month, the United Nations reduced its estimate for the number of women and children killed in the conflict, a rough proxy for the number of civilians killed, significantly. U.N. officials reportedly switched its primary resource for death data from the Hamas-run Government Media Office to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Last week, Harvard reinstated at least 22 students who were placed on involuntary leave as the board pursued its investigation into the Harvard Yard encampment. It is unclear how many student cases associated with the encampment are still outstanding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Harvard University is \u201ccommitted to applying all policies in a content-neutral manner and per existing regulations as outlined in college and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/notre-dame-students-faculty-alumni-complain-about-plans-to-put-chick-fil-a-on-campus\/\" title=\"Notre Dame Students, Faculty, Alumni Complain About Plans To Put Chick-Fil-A On Campus\">university guidelines<\/a>,\u201d spokesman Jonathan Palumbo said in a statement, according to the Crimson.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1700760801843000&#038;usg=AOvVaw2PQrVSrJfhxNb4LcARqniG\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Harvard is one of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/california-university-holds-kyle-rittenhouse-verdict-debriefing-for-students-provides-counseling-and-psychological-services\/\" title=\"California University Holds Kyle Rittenhouse Verdict \u2018Debriefing\u2019 For Students, Provides \u2018Counseling And Psychological Services\u2019\">numerous universities<\/a> that have been rocked by anti-Israel protests since Hamas\u2019 terrorist attack on Israel on October 7.
