CAMPUS PROTESTS CARING : PRECIS

Differing perspectives on the campus protests : Re '' On Campus at Columbia, in 1968 and now, '' by Serge Schmemann. [ Opinion : April 30 ] :

Media avidly cover campus demonstrations, while politicians and big donors rail against naive students demonstrators .

But the students are not wrong, and many commentators miss the point :

The current outrage is not what's happening on university campuses. It's what's happening in Gaza.

That is still going on, every day, every hour, without a visible solution. Incredibly, things could get even worse, and students are to be commended for caring.
