NEW: Columbia Suspends Ilhan Omar's Daughter for Pro-Palestinian Protest

“I just received notice that I am 1 of 3 students suspended for standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide.”

Hirsi and the two other students received notice of their suspension from Barnard Dean, Leslie Grinage, first thing Thursday morning, the Apartheid Divest said in a statement.

Her suspension comes after at least three people were arrested in connection with the ongoing tent protest on the Ivy League school’s Morningside campus.

Apple, tree, distance falling from, etc etc etc.

This doesn't sound like a punishment for protesting. It sounds as though Apartheid Divest has tried to 'occupy' part of the campus, and that the school (Barnard College at Columbia, specifically) has decided that enough is enough.
