This article was about a student organized group at Suffolk University called the Students for Justice in Palestine, who organized a walkout along with a few other schools, such as Emerson and Berklee. The students gathered outside of an academic building on January 25th and moved through the campuses of all of the schools involved. A solidarity vigil was also held by this organization on December 7th for everyone who has lost their lives in the current war. The reasoning for the walkout was in protest of the silence of higher ups at Suffolk, who have only released one statement two months ago claiming the institution is neutral.
This article is meant to inform the reader about Suffolk University’s spring showcase, which is currently in the works. The showcase will be taking place this weekend and will feature a collection of student written works meant to act as individual shows. Matthew Killion and Grace Kelley, two Suffolk students, go on to describe their one act plays that will be included in the showcase. They describe the writing of their plays, both focused in grief from each of them. Both writers also explain the effort that their plays took to produce, and how excited they are that they have the opportunity to have their play preformed for their student body.
