Guzman introduced in a campus-wide letter Tuesday. The transfer got here after pro-Israel teams criticized Tabassum for a hyperlink on her Instagram profile directing folks to a pro-Palestinian web site.Teams on and off campus say the positioning is proof that the graduating senior is antisemitic, which Tabassum denied in an interview with The Occasions.“It’s now not about free speech. It’s now not about me. It's about when the college silences me, they're silencing all these folks,” Tabassum mentioned, referring to pro-Palestinian activists.On Thursday, college students and school initially walked silently within the warmth whereas media choppers hovered overhead. Many wore head coverings, together with beanies, hoodies, hijabs and keffiyehs, and a few had tape over their mouths to characterize what they name Tabassum’s unjust silencing. College students, school and pro-Palestinian activists from off campus joined Thursday’s largely silent march at USC.

College students and school talked softly amongst themselves as they adopted these forward of them down campus paths.“That is nothing in comparison with the disruption we’re going to see at graduation,” one scholar mentioned.“She labored so exhausting for the respect of talking,” mentioned one other.USC public security officers in uniform adopted the group on bikes however didn't intervene. Though some protesters held indicators in assist of Tabassum, no chants rose from the group till close to the tip of the protest.

Jahan mentioned that her personal place on Tabassum has “nothing to do together with her non secular beliefs and nothing to do together with her tutorial achievement” — however that she feels the views the valedictorian linked to on social media are “clearly antisemitic.”Saying the protest “represents a double customary,” she requested: “If a valedictorian was chosen who was discriminatory and promotes hate speech towards another racial minority, would we've allowed them to be chosen for this place or communicate? No.”The college had “made the mistaken alternative within the valedictorian and in how you can deal with the controversy,” she added.

By doing so that they put each Jewish and Muslim communities in a a lot worse and harmful place on campus,” Jahan mentioned.Sarah Schornstein, a Jewish graduate scholar who was on campus Thursday, mentioned she was additionally avoiding the protest — however not as a result of she fully disagreed with it.“I’m a free speech absolutist,” mentioned Schornstein, who research public diplomacy. “I’m simply not huge on protests.”“I agree that she linked to issues that had been clearly antisemitic — a web page calling for the dissolution of Israel,” she mentioned of Tabassum. “However finally, we don’t know what she was going to say” at commencement.

JAMES HOOK ; valedictorian

summary ; as class valedictorian, hook is infatuated with you

warnings ; language

word count ; 280

masterlist

he loves how smart you are

he parades it around like a trophy for you

"well, my lover is smarter than you'll ever be. maybe they can conjure up a little revenge for you?"

"hook!"

"yes maam"

you're practically doing his homework atp

you're insanely smart (obv since you're valedictorian) so if he or the other vk's need help, he's sending himself/them to you

"these two are like, if sulfur was a liquid, right?"

"yup. more toxic than your behavior after a bad nap"

"y/n."

if you're an AK (auradon kid) then your relationship was definitely rocky at first

you kinda just deal with his friends cause he's ur boyfriend

he's nice enough to you at least

he's honestly super nice to everyone when uliana isn't around, he's gotta keep up appearances as a VK

but it's your brains that draw him to you

he's just so infatuated with you and how quickly you can solve a problem and how easily you find mental challenges

if you're a VK (villain kid) then you've definitely known each other long enough for him to have known you were insanely smart

he's always trying to get you a spot into conversation when the group is talking about a new prank or some sort of plan to invoke evil upon the AK's

"y/n, what do you think?" he asks, seeing you'd been rather shut out by uliana and hades

you shrug. "it needs more pizzazz"

"i agree" he shrugs, looking back at the debating duo. "add pizzazz"

"what does pizzazz mean in this context?" hades chuckles

"a spell, at least. whatre we planning? to shove them in a locker?"

he loves you

Back in high school, my brother liked going to high school football games, but he did not like paying to get into them, so he used to go to the school before the game and get on the bus with the band. The director definitely knew he wasn't in the marching band and didn't care. One time someone in the band called him out and asked him what instrument he played, and he said, "piano."

SABRINA CARPENTER FEATHER + Pop Ups

[patolemus]

AU where Stiles and Derek are both in high school and they have this long standing rivalry that started years ago back when they were still in elementary school and they hate each other, absolutely despise each other. Do they remember why? Not really, but they do know they must beat the other at all costs.

Derek is captain of the basketball team and Stiles does track. They both have trophies and awards, Derek has won the state championship ever since he started playing, and Stiles gets gold or silver in all of his events during competitions. Their GPA is exactly the same, Stiles is a History genius and Derek always aces English. They both suck at Chemistry, and they hate Harris. It's the only thing they ever agree on.

The only other highlight of their high school career besides their epic and everlasting hate-hate relationship is the anonymous person they've been talking to through annotated books.

Stiles blames his impulsiveness, because one day in freshman year he picked up a book full of little notes in the margin of the pages in the library and decided to answer all of them with his own little insights. Somehow he ends up having entire conversations made in intervals of a few days, in the form of words written on paper.

Derek? Well, he likes to annotate books and have mini conversations with himself, and he uses a pencil to write them, it’s not like he’s permanently damaging school property or anything! He starts caring less and less about that, though, when someone starts leaving answers to his annotations, much more invested on the conversations than on the preservation of school property.

Now, years later, about eighty percent of the library's books contain little messages and full blown conversations between two complete strangers. Stiles and Derek are about to graduate, and neither of them knows who this other person is. Which is a tragedy because they're pretty sure this mysterious person is the love of their life.

Spoiler alert: they're right.

Kenny’s high school Valedictorian Speech

[selkiesongss]

god i love marcille and i adore my fellow marcille enjoyers, but i think a lot of yall forget that shes literally one of the most talented healers in the magic academy's history.

she went to study healing magic (specifically studying disease and injury*), MASTERED it as a young adult, and then CREATED BRAND NEW HEALING SPELLS*??? like. she isnt just a replacement for falin, she is objectively of equal (or potentially greater) skill when it comes to restorative magics!

now some of you will say that her healing is worse because it hurts, but that's just because she believes that tampering with somebody's ability to feel recovery pain is too risky to justify doing**.

idk maybe im thinking too much about it but some of you...... some of you arent giving her the credit she deserves! put some respect on my girls name !!!!!!! anyway. happy pride month transfems and lesbians and transfem lesbians

V FOR VALEDICTORIAN character introduction :

J.B. DECKER, the librarian.

here's the next character intro with j.b.!! honestly, i think she's my favorite out of the whole cast design wise. she's just so much fun to draw for me.

i haven't started on her intro yet, but the next character i'll be sharing is our victim, victoria valentine!

( alt text for j.b.'s bio below! ) ⤵

Justine B. Decker, Also known as J.B.

Chumbridge College's Chief Librarian who is known for keeping meticulous care of the Library. Has been working in the position for a little over 6 years, having previously worked as an assistant librarian while attending Chumbridge for her masters.

Generally well liked by students and staff due to her polite nature and cordial personality. She also isn't afraid to be straightforward with others when needed. Describes herself as an "open book."

Legal guardian of her niece, Drew. Gets exacerbated by her antics, but clearly loves and cares for her deeply. They have no other living relatives so they're the only family either has left.

Her brother and sister-in-law were both killed in a breaking and entering gone horribly wrong 3 years ago, the culprit was never found and the case has since gone cold.

Fairly familiar with the victim as she was a frequent visitor to the library, especially as of the past few months. Victoria may have been concerned for J.B.'s safety, having been the one who suggested that Georgie escort Drew and her when they leave campus for the night.

Dr. Conrad was one of her brother's college friends and seems interested in getting to know her better outside of work, the feeling isn't mutual.

Big fan of mystery novels and enjoys reading them in her spare time.

Writes as a hobby, using the journal she carries with her to jot down ideas and draft out her stories. Isn't very confident in her writing so she's pretty apprehensive about sharing it with others. The currently story she's writing is a murder mystery, revolving around a cold case.

Likes bad puns.
