Whose University Is It?

This event is being put on by a grassroots coalition of activists, scholars, students, and community members who are fighting for transparency and democratic decision-making on campus.

Universities are rolling out the red carpet for war criminals like Mohammad bin Salman and taking money from profit-hungry corporations - all behind closed doors and without any say from students, faculty, staff, and local communities.
Please join us in this effort to imagine a university that’s for the people - not for corporations, foreign governments, or the military. We'll hear from a variety of speakers, including:
<UL>
<LI>Shireen Al-Adeimi (Assistant Professor at Michigan State University &amp; Harvard graduate)</LI>
<LI>Quinton Zondervan (Cambridge City Councilmember)</LI>
<LI>Sally Haslanger (MIT Professor of Philosophy)</LI>
<LI>And many others, including students, faculty, and activists from BU, Harvard, Mass Peace Action, MIT, and Tufts.</LI>
</UL>
After a series of short presentations, we'll host a town hall-style session where everyone is invited to share their thoughts. Afterwards, pizza will be served and there will be time for informal discussion.
