According to an article by Jemima McEvoy, Managing Editor at the Washington Square News, we will not be finding out the outcome of this petition due to privacy policies. Article quoted below: "NYU SpokespersonJohn Beckman said that due to federal privacy laws he is unable to discuss an individual student’s academic or disciplinary record. Hence, at this point any potential punishment from the university is unknown. “I cannot comment other than to say that matters like these are handled on a case-by-case basis,” Beckman said in an email. “And the university is prohibited by law from discussing issues related to a specific student.”" - Despite this, I encourage people to treat this like a public forum for your thoughts: continue to sign the petition and leave a comment. Your thoughts are still being heard as the petition continues to be e-mailed to administrative figures at NYU. This petition has gathered 28,000+ signatures in 3 days - a huge success in sending the message that these types of actions are not accepted in our society despite what the court system seems to believe. Continue forward, and I will provide any updates if they become available. - I am not available for comment, everything in this petition has been purely facts sourced from various news organizations. I would prefer to keep these as facts and leave the opinions to the signees.
