Part 7/8:
International organizations have taken notice of the situation at LSC. Gina Romero, the UN special reporter on freedom of speech and assembly, has pressed LSC to recognize the human rights implications of their actions. Amnesty International, as well as other advocacy groups, have echoed similar sentiments, highlighting a growing concern over institutional threats to free speech and peaceful protest.
The developments at LSC represent a growing trend across educational institutions where administrative power is wielded against expressions of dissent. Critics argue that the university appears willing to bend internal rules and, at times, legal definitions of free speech to pursue its own agenda, which fundamentally undermines recognized human rights principles.
