Six months ago, in the wake of the October 7th Hamas attacks, I put out a video reacting to the anti-Israel protests that erupted seemingly out of nowhere. Beyond questions of human rights or antisemitism, I was struck by the hypocrisy and absurdity of how college students were behaving.

I was equally concerned by how the administrations of our most elite universities flailed in incompetence, implicitly supporting some of the worst behavior by their students. Now that the protests have turned into encampments at practically every major university, have any lessons been learned?
