New School president Bob Kerrey has been under fire from students and faculty for months, but at a meeting yesterday a representative of student activist group New School in Exile upped the ante.
Reading from a prepared statement, she said that if Kerrey and vice president James Murtha don’t resign by April 1, “we will shut down the functions of the university. We will bring it to a halt. We will make it stop.”
“Through our civil disobedience,” she continued, “we will reclaim the university as a center of academic and political action … we will continue to struggle until we have restored the legacy and integrity of the New School!”
