From the article, they want to adopt https://freeexpression.uchicago.edu/ -- which seems reasonable to me. Some of the other stuff does sound unnecessary.
Although, I will say, when our public schools here allowed walkouts to protest ICE (high schools), I thought it was shameful. Who at the school gets to decide what causes are worthy of allowing the walkouts that people don't get punished for missing school? Which causes are OK for the teachers to push upon students, who decides that?
If I were a parent, I'd be upset that they put my kid in a position to either participate in the walkout or face pressure from other students for "disagreeing" with them or supporting ICE. That's an unfair position for a student to be in because the school is trying to push a particular agenda.
School walkouts typically have nothing to do with the school itself, and certainly do not ask for it to be allowed. It is the kids who walk out. The schools typically treat it like any other unexcused absence.
It seems that a lot of elite campuses have become this way. Riots and protests to prevent anyone from speaking that doesn't agree with the prevailing thought on campus.
If the recent news about moving lots of soldiers from EU Nato installations back home is true, they'll have a ton of trained active military ATC's available to use in the US soon.
Seems like a no brainer to me. The original creator should be rewarded, not someone who clips it and reverses it and changes it a bit so it looks like they were the original creator.
I do have a few "free" AWS accounts! But they're for FreeBSD stuff (development, publishing official images, and FreeBSD infrastructure which Amazon hosts) -- I would never use them for my business.
I'm sure I could get away with it and nobody at Amazon would even notice, but it's the principle of the thing.
