Ariel, a communications and accounting student, spoke out opposite Alqasem’s attainment during a university, observant that he believes a university “crossed a line, and it doesn’t assistance a goals of a university.” “It’s a contrition there’s no voice of reason in a university to extent this,” he said.
“The university voiced an opinion, as deputy of a tyro body, but any referendum among them,” pronounced Nitzan, a Jewish studies tyro during a Mount Scopus campus.
“I, personally, am unfeeling in studying with a BDS activist. From a impulse a interior apportion settled that it would be crude for her to enter a country, it became crude for her to investigate during a university.”
Nathan, a story and general family student, had identical opinions to his other associate classmen. “I consider it’s a disgrace,” he said. “It proves that we don’t have any arrange of laws that make a disproportion here,” he continued. “Whether we opinion Likud or Meretz, it doesn’t matter since if a Supreme Court doesn’t like your law, they’ll only strike it down. This is a matter of inhabitant security.”
Several students, on a other hand, voiced hostile views. Nicole, for example, a domestic scholarship student, settled that Alqasem is “a small girl. The fact that she behaved a certain approach out of a country… in a end, she is entrance here for a certain reason. we trust they done an elephant out of a fly,” she continued. “She’s a 20-year-old.
