The FOX & Friends co-host spoke with pro-Palestinian protesters at a college over their support of Hamas. A Stanford University instructor is sidelined for "identity-based targeting of students" as the school probes a situation that caused "serious concern" on the heels of the brutal Hamas terror attacks in Israel.
Stanford President Richard Saller and Provost Jenny Martinez issued a lengthy statementaddressing "several issues that have arisen" on campus since the Hamas terror attack, including the apparent benching of an unnamed instructor. "We want to make clear that Stanford stands unequivocally against hatred on the basis of religion, race, ethnicity, national origin, and other categories.
The expression of political views, in appropriate times and places, is important. Thoughtful, reasoned discussion of current issues is central to the life of the university.
Our commitment to academic freedom means that latitude for expression of controversial and even offensive views is necessary to avoid chilling freedom of thought and ideas," the statement read.
