NYU withholds diploma of Gallatin graduate who condemned ‘genocide currently occurring’ in Gaza
NYU is withholding the diploma of a Gallatin graduate after he condemned “the atrocities currently happening in Palestine” during his speech at the school’s graduation ceremony on Wednesday. The university has faced significant pushback for its decision from several student, faculty, alumni and civil rights groups.

A sea of violet robes flooded Yankee Stadium on Thursday morning as nearly 30,000 graduates and guests entered the arena in celebration of NYU’s class of 2025, amid what President Linda Mills called “times of intense change” in the wake of a federal crackdown on higher education.
