A graduating Harvard University student went off script and sharply slammed Harvard for the university’s arbitrary action against the students protesting against Israel’s ongoing genocidal war on Gaza.
Shruthi Kumar, an Indian American from Nebraska, who was chosen to deliver the English commencement remarks for the undergraduate class, said, “As I stand here today, I must take a moment to recognize my peers-the 13 undergraduates in the class of 2024 who will not graduate today.”
13 pro-Palestine students were barred from graduating for their active involvement in campus protests, even after a majority of the university’s faculty of arts and sciences voted for the students to have their degrees conferred, according to the Harvard Crimson. The Harvard Corporation, the university’s governing body, voted on Wednesday to halt the students’ graduation.

Harvard denied diplomas to 13 students for participating in a pro-Palestine protest on campus. Just as there are laws of the land, every university has its own rules that must be followed. In the name of freedom of speech, students sometimes overlook the importance of adhering to these rules.

Very touching and cute. On a side note- yet to hear from the people suffering in Gaza to demand from Oct 7 perpetrators to surrender to IDF. Begs the question of whether being on the receiving end exempt you from moral responsibility? If it does, then Israel is exempted too.

South Asian Parents not knowing about applying to US colleges. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔This is too much.. This is not right to show your parents in such poor light.. Indian parents (even the poor ones) are epitome of preparing and pushing their kids to top US colleges..(ask steven he) as they see clearly this is the only way to come out of poverty.. people need to be more open and more tolerant but using the card of color and freedom of speech everytime is not right.. the speech ofcourse has many good messages like keeping an open mind. but do we need to celebrate every loud message that is given from such podiums?? 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐

This girl needs to realise that those 13 students had no right to politicise the Harvard campus - they needed to use their freedom-of-speech OFF campus and respect the views of others who felt threatened at Harvard due to the over exertion of pressure to either align with you or face bullying by likes of you.

Congratulations on ruining your career even before it started. Screaming on a podium is nothing like the real world. You just told all your prospective employers that you are not to be trusted. And that is how the real world works. If you thought that you got your point across to Harvard by yelling like that on the podium, good luck. The younger generation can be downright stupid often times.
