Quoting from speech.. "These students may not leave with the degrees they rightfully earned, but they will walk out of Harvard's gates with something more important, a clear conscience&a proof of resolute commitment to humanity." Such wisdom defines quintessential leadership!!!!

Beautiful speech. I’m so in awe of this generation of globally minded, conscience driven youth. They have more morality and integrity than any of our current so-called democratic political leaders. Cannot wait for these people to govern their nations.

Is there anything written when students enroll with a university agreement that states that their degree can be withheld purely because the University disagrees with their political beliefs? If not then the USA is already a very litigious society, take a group action law suit?

Does he have a name? We need to know the names of those risking their lives and livelihoods to build a better world for all. Watching I was thinking: I hope these energy and courage can last long enough for him to make those words true. Congratulations.

Harvard's refusal to award degrees to pro-Palestine protesters is a despicable attack on their freedom of speech and assembly #FreeSpeech #JusticeForPalestine
