"Minouche Shafik, resigned this week in the wake of criticism for her handling of the protests, but not before overseeing the installation of fencing around the lawns of the school’s quad – the heart of campus life and the site of large protest encampments."

I can't think of a better symbol for free speech falling from grace, than the common space of a University quad being surrounded by a fence.

That picture is chilling.

A hopeful thought: That fence has a lot of potential as a symbol... Should any local artists feel the need to anonymously contribute to campus culture...
