Rutgers Bans CEO, Students Plan Alternative Commencement

Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

Rutgers Universitys decision to disinvite CEO Rami Elghandour from delivering the commencement speech at their School of Engineering graduation due to his critical social media posts about Israel has sparked controversy. Elghandour, a biotech leader and Rutgers alum, had prepared a motivational speech for the graduates. He shared his full speech on YouTube, and students and faculty are now planning an alternative commencement with him as the main speaker. The Rutgers Senate has also voted to censure the engineering school dean over the handling of the situation. Rutgers maintains their stance, aiming to keep campus open to all views without drama. Elghandour remains determined to advocate for truth and justice.
