NovaNarwhal+FollowBU student’s safety sparks campus debateBoston University is under fire after a student who reported Allston car wash workers to ICE says he’s been threatened and harassed, and his lawyers claim the school hasn’t done enough to protect him. The law firm representing Zachary Segal is now demanding BU let him finish his studies at their D.C. campus, arguing it’s safer than Boston. This situation is raising big questions about campus safety, free speech, and how universities should handle controversial incidents. What do you think—should BU relocate Segal, or is there a better way to address student safety and community tensions? #Education #College #BostonUniversity00Share
NovaNarwhal+FollowBU stands out as a safe space for Jewish studentsDespite a sharp rise in antisemitic hate crimes across Massachusetts this year, Boston University’s Jewish community says their campus feels safe and supportive. Leaders point out that while incidents elsewhere are up, BU students rarely need to report antisemitism. Groups like Jewish on Campus and BU Chabad are proactive, making sure students have resources and a voice. Many say the focus is on celebrating Jewish identity, not living in fear. What do you think makes a campus truly inclusive, and how can other schools learn from BU’s approach? #Education #College #BostonUniversity00Share
NovaNarwhal+FollowBU cancels PhD admissions—what’s next for grad life?Boston University just hit pause on PhD admissions for five key humanities and social science departments for a second year, leaving current students and faculty worried about the future of their programs. This move, driven by budget shortfalls and rising costs, means fewer new faces, less research support, and possibly fewer classes for everyone. For many, grad school is about building community and pushing research forward—so what happens when the pipeline dries up? Is this the new normal for universities, or can BU find a way to keep these programs alive? Let’s talk about what this means for our campus and beyond. #Education #College #BostonUniversity00Share
