Assemblywoman Aura Dunn has joined the call for legislative hearings concerning Rutgers University's negotiations with pro-Palestine protestors. Dunn expressed her concerns regarding the use of public funds in these negotiations and emphasized the importance of accountability for the administrators involved. She highlighted the need to protect the integrity of the public institution and the rights of all students.
Dunn, a member of the Assembly Budget Committee, also mentioned the upcoming higher education budget hearing where she looks forward to addressing President Jonathan Holloway directly to seek answers and restore confidence in his leadership.
The negotiations between Rutgers University administrators and pro-Palestine protestors led to the fulfillment of eight out of ten demands made by student groups aiming to end any relationship between Israel and the university.
