A committee at Northwestern University has found there was no reason for Northwestern to have suspended professor Steven Thrasher, chair of social justice reporting at the Medill School of Journalism, last September. Dr. Thrasher, along with fellow professors, formed a defense line to protect students demonstrating for Palestinian rights last spring. He was assaulted by police and later was called out by name during a congressional hearing about campus protests. But even as the committee exonerated Thrasher, Northwestern has opened another disciplinary proceeding against him. Click here to see our interviews with Steven Thrasher.
