Student protestors hold a mock trial against Stanford president Jonathan Levin at Sanford University in Palo Alto, Calif., on Monday, Oct. 28, 2024. Students gathered to protest as they await the results of whether Stanford will or will not sanction the 13 students who staged a sit-in in the president’s office in June.
“Banning from campus is a very harsh thing that they rarely do,” Wilson added. Wilson expressed concern that the student protestors banned from campus as part of their suspension lost access to their housing and were unable to access health care through the university. “Everyone is aware that there are huge risks already, and this is just another drop in the bucket,” he said. “If I get in trouble or whatnot, it’s a slap on the wrist compared to other human beings who are suffering so, so much more.”
Some students attending the rally expressed frustration that Stanford was considering disciplinary action against the protestors.
