the moms (they literally call themselves Mothers Against College Antisemitism, 
or "MACA"---I can't even 😫) are also out in full force:

It's strictly speculation at this rate, but I would be 0% surprised if this 
group were somehow connected to Bari Weiss. She got her start as a public 
figure 20+ years ago as a student at Columbia by harassing 
Palestine-sympathetic professors and trying to get the administration to fire 
them...the same woman who loves to go on about free speech, but only on her 
terms: https://jewishcurrents.org/the-real-war-on-free-speech

Overall, I'm deeply worried about the threats this poses to American higher 
education as an independent institution and agent of change, not to mention the 
actual safety of marginalized elements of the student body. How far are we on 
the path to full-on fascism if college administrations are this complicit?
