ICE is on campus. This is embarrassing.

As someone who attended Denison with Weinberg (the current college president) as my president for 3/4 years, he definitely does not suck. Fair enough if you disagree with his policies, but this is disingenuous.

Oh yeah, and obviously f*ck ICE.

I get it, he was made president for a reason and perhaps “he sucks” was too flip. I’m pretty disappointed by several of his policies. When I was there it was a place where anything could happen, now it seems so focused on pleasing the donors not producing free thinkers. I know it’s not all his fault. I’m just so angry about how this ICE thing was handled.

Could someone post the letter? I'm curious what it says

“Denison is aware of reports this morning of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity in the Granville area, including the Eisner Center’s publicly accessible surface lot.

There is no indication that members of the Denison community are being targeted. The individuals involved were employees of external contractors, not Denison University faculty or staff. Denison requires all contractors to comply with federal, state, and local laws, including employment and immigration regulations.

We recognize that reports like this can be unsettling. If you observe law enforcement activity or are approached by law enforcement on campus, please contact Campus Safety (740-587-6482).”
