Students at Columbia University say that all finals should be canceled and students awarded passing grades because they are “irrevocably shaken” by the recent protests on campus.
The Columbia Law Review writes this: “The events of last night left us, and many of our peers, unable to focus and highly emotional during this tumultuous time… We believe that canceling exams would be a proportionate response to the level of distress our peers have been feeling.”
Surprisingly, the school is not planning to do that. A spokesperson for the school told the NY Post that exams will resume this week. Nice try kids!
