Columbia students express outrage at Meles invitation

A newspaper run by Columbia students, Columbia Spectator, writes about student reactions to the invitation to Ethiopia’s genocidal tyrant Meles Zenawi to give keynote address on September 22.

Initially, Columbia asked Meles to speak about Ethiopia and African leadership [see here]. That was changed to “The Current Global Economy and its Impact [see here].” The latest is “The Current Global Environment and its Impact in Africa [see here and here].”
