Summary
A physics professor testified before the royal commission that protesters occupied his office — a deeply personal attack amid rising tensions — and called for universities to enforce consequences for misbehavior. Despite hiring a private investigator, he remains unsure of the protesters’ identities, fearing ties to extremist groups. The University of Melbourne has since banned indoor protests. Jewish students report feeling unsafe on campus, while many say universities mishandle antisemitic incidents — with some waiting months for responses or getting none at all. Academics warn that silencing debate may backfire, urging institutions to foster respectful dialogue and healing across communities.
