The University of Southern California has moved Jewish economics professor John Strauss to remote teaching for the rest of the semester after he called Hamas terrorists "murderers" who "should be killed" during a confrontation with pro-Palestinian students on campus. The incident, which was captured on video, sparked controversy and led to petitions both in support of and against the professor. The Academic Freedom Alliance criticized USC's treatment of Strauss, stating that his words were protected under the First Amendment. USC confirmed the move to remote teaching, citing the need to investigate allegations and ensure a safe environment for all members of the community.
