HOWARD UNIVERSITY PROTEST!!!!!
There is a live protest going on at the world renowned Howard University. Students, faculty and staff have joined forces to bring down corrupt and incompetent administration as well as fighting for basic rights. The protest has garnered the attention of famous alumni such as P. Diddy who is currently tweeting about the protest and his willingness to come to DC and support the students. The students started the protest at the Administration Building but have been since forced from the doors and locked out by the Administration and Campus Police. The students are demanding the resignation of Vice Provost for Student Affairs Charles J. Gibbs because of gross negligence, intimidation of students, and an overall lack of competence in performing the duties associated with his position. The Administration is refusing to speak with the students and the students are refusing to end the protest. They will not end it until the administration responds to their demands and immediately terminates Gibbs.
