Brandeis University faculty votes 'no confidence' in president after 'excessive' crackdown on student protests

The faculty at Brandeis University has voted in favor of a motion of no confidence against university president Ronald Liebowitz due to his 'excessive' handling of on-campus protesters. The motion passed with 159 votes in favor, 149 votes in opposition, and 26 abstentions. The vote will now be taken to the Board of Trustees to decide Liebowitz's removal and replacement. Brandeis University was one of multiple college campuses to experience anti-Israel protests, and under Liebowitz's leadership, the university chose to no longer recognize the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) for its support of Hamas and the elimination of Israel.
