Looks like the administration is expecting more of the commotion we saw the last time Chomsky was here. The linguist/philosopher/cognitive scientist/activist etc. returns to Columbia tonight at 6 pm in LeFrak for another round of controversy.
Update, 4:20 pm: We hate to be the bearers of bad news if you were hoping to beat the crowd, but…
According to the Center for Palestinian Studies’ site, “Seating is on a first-come, first-seated basis. Preference will be given to CUID holders. Doors open at 5:00 PM. Event will begin promptly at 6:00 PM. Barnard and Columbia students are encouraged to arrive early.”

@Annoyed I felt like I was on a line for the last cup of water in Gaza tonight…Chomsky sucks.

@Anonymous I “disliked “this because you read too far into a weirdo
@Anonymous I “disliked” this because you don’t know how to reply to a post.
