Episode Details

McGill Universitys president, Deep Saini, has rejected a student referendum calling for a boycott of Israeli academic institutions, labeling it discriminatory and lacking legal weight. The referendum, pushed by the Law Students Association and supporters of Palestine, aimed to cut ties with Israeli universities over their links to military actions in Gaza. The move has sparked controversy, with a key donor resigning due to rising hostility toward Jewish students and faculty, and the university backing a Jewish students court challenge. The incident highlights tensions between free expression and institutional policies on campus.
