Reply to comment by vivaportugalhabs in Penn students face disciplinary hearings for campus protests by dotcom-jillionaire

in some ways though it's better to have students making that mistake while they're in college and to have penn deal with them and not have police intervening and bring real world consequences into these students lives.

nothing wrong with student pursuing activism and organizing around helping low income residents. the problem is, as you point out, the entities organizing around this issue have no idea what they're doing and are drawing impressionable partners into their orbit, pushing them towards unproductive actions and behavior

They have like a laundry list of ridiculous demands though. Penn buying the UC townhouses property is going to cost MILLIONS, and they’re definitely not getting that out of their endowment - and it’ll only make it harder for middle class people to afford going to Penn.
