The Chronicle: Antiwar Protests on 8 Campuses Appear on Pentagon List of ‘Threats’ to National Security

ntiwar protests at eight colleges have made a Pentagon watch list of “suspicious incidents.”

The 400-page list, which was obtained by NBC News, includes information on 1,500 “threats” to national security that occurred over a recent 10-month period, and characterizes them as either “credible” or “not credible.”

The campus protests, all of which were aimed at military recruiters, occurred at New York University (twice), the State University of New York at Albany (twice), Southern Connecticut State University, City College of the City University of New York, the University of California campuses at Berkeley and at Santa Cruz, an unspecified campus of the University of Wisconsin, and “a New Jersey university.” Only one of the events, the protest at Santa Cruz, was cited as a “credible threat.”
