NYU Faces Lawsuit After Withholding Graduate’s Diploma for Pro-Palestine Speech
NYU withheld Logan Rozos’s diploma after he delivered an anti-war commencement speech condemning Israel’s actions in Gaza, characterizing them as genocide supported by the U.S. The university stated Rozos violated his agreement by delivering a speech differing from his promised content and used his platform to express personal political views. This action follows previous incidents where NYU has faced criticism for suppressing anti-war speech and allegedly yielding to pressure from pro-Israel groups. Rozos’s student profile was subsequently removed from the NYU website.
