I think it’s safe to assume that every college or university with a significant African American enrollment will experience a ripple effect of protests and direct actions as each student body attempts to demonstrate their solidarity with other campuses across the country. @hebegebe is correct to the extent that this represents a stress test of sorts for each campus. It is obviously being fueled by social media as well as by pent up frustrations that are possibly unique to each college. I don’t know how anyone could possibly rate each protest according to a “scale”. But I’ll try: Ferocity? Ingenuity? Results? I’m just brainstorming.
