The catastrophic COVID surge in India, with record numbers of new cases every day, shows few signs of slowing down. A number of humanitarian organizations, governments, individuals, and even celebrities are finding ways to help supply urgently needed resources and medical supplies. Harvard Business School student Shyamli Badgaiyan was among those who quickly mobilized a fundraising effort that has already raised more than $160,000 in aid.
“I had been watching COVID-19 cases surge and been feeling terribly anxious and helpless,” said Badgaiyan, who is from Delhi. “I found myself thinking of ways to help from afar an instinct I would later learn many students across the country were also feeling.”
student. so that s actually my next question. i want to put on the screen the statement issued by the yale police chief which says this. they informed the caller the student had been in the common room. was an authorized resident and had every right to be there. they also explained this was not a police matter and were reporting the incident to the dean of graduate school of arts and sciences. should the white student be reprimanded? yes. think about this. we should not be using our police officers to engage in discrimination in public accommodations or accommodations on university campuses where we have a student calling the police for something she knows is not a crime. she s essentially trying to use the police to effectuate her personal preferences in terms of segregated white space. that s unconscionable.
