Emory University Faculty Senate Votes No Confidence In President

Protests continue at a protest encampment in support of Palestinians at University of California, Berkeley

Emory University's College of Arts and Sciences faculty senate recently made headlines by overwhelmingly approving a vote of no confidence against university President Gregory L. Fenves. The vote was a direct response to the controversial decision to involve outside law enforcement officers in the violent arrest of students and faculty members during a pro-Palestinian protest on campus.

The motion of no confidence and demand for redress garnered significant support, with 358 votes in favor and 119 votes against. This represents approximately 75% of the College of Arts and Sciences faculty expressing their dissatisfaction with Fenves' actions.
