1968 in Black and White, 2024 in Color I Took His Money, I Gagged Him, I Will Jail Him Yogi Berra, “It’s like déjà vu all over again.” Campus protests re-emerge from the late 1960’s like locusts. There are a few differences. Everything is in color this time. Funny, all of the tents are the same color. In the 1960’s the students were protesting against war and for peace now they are protesting against peace in support of a war against Israel. In 1968, on the Columbus University campus, they were chanting “Hell No, I Won’t Go”. In 2024 on the Columbus University campus they are chanting, “From The River To The Sea”. In 1968 they knew what “Hell No, I Won’t Go” meant. In 2024 it’s not clear they understand what “From The River To The Sea” means. In 1968 you had to take the SAT tests to get into Columbia. In 2024 you don’t need to. Maybe it’s time for Columbia to require SAT testing again.
