Hundreds of Case Western Reserve University students gathered in a pro-Palestine walkout Monday expressing “no confidence” in CWRU President Eric Kaler. Among signs held by students, some read “Undergrad has spoken.
"He proved that he had no concerns about protecting Palestinian lives or Arab lives or any marginalized groups on campus that speak out," one organizer said Divest from Israel,” “Stop funding genocide with my tuition,” and “Kaler, their blood is on your hands.” according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health, more than 4,000 of whom were children–and called on Kaler to resign, saying the university isn’t safe.
Members of SJP met with Kaler to express their concerns on October 26 but, according to Rih-Reh, the meeting was unproductive. “Calling us terrorists for speaking out against violence, which is unacceptable. That's not what this school stands for and that's what Eric Kaler is creating an environment of. We can’t even say, ‘free Palestine,’ without being called anti-Semitic, which I think is horrible because Judaism is not a religion that agrees with disenfranchising people, with killing innocent people.”
SJP has alleged that the center was compelled to withdraw support as part of “intimidation tactics” by university administration. The center did not respond to Scene’s request for comment.
