    I was 21 days old when this happened. What a turbulent year.

      YES! I bet you live to ingratiate your massive ego with your petulant and incessant rallying.

    Although Columbia University President Kirk resigned from Institute for Defense Analyses [IDA]'s executive committee and IDA board of trustees and Columbia University presidency in summer of 1968, Columbia University Life Trustee and CBS board member William A.M. Burden (who was also the U.S ambassador to Belgium who, in 1960-61 period, pushed for the overthrow of the democratically-elected government of Patrice Lumumba in the Congo) remained on IDA's board of trustees until the late 1970s; and, because some Columbia University professors continued to be allowed by the Columbia University administration to continue to do secret Vietnam War-related weapons research on campus as members of IDA's Jason Division of university scientists after 1968, anti-war students at Columbia University again occupied Columbia University campus buildings in April 1972, as shown in the video about 1972 protests at Columbia at following link: th-cam.com/video/pPOwxGuxlX0/w-d-xo.html.

    The people known for fighting city hall. (Clint Eastwood, Firefox as Mitchell Gant to a Jewish Soviet Dissident) marched on Low Library and all that. Now the Jewish Students and non Jewish Students must stand outside barricades. Some of the Coeds at the barricades are young enough to be Eisenberg's granddaughter. Such irony.
