The student group Hungry for Education met with administration Friday afternoon, which prevented their planned hunger strike. The group represented the opposition to the University’s silence on the future of adjunct instructor Ken DeBevoise, a popular lecturer and expert on Middle Eastern affairs.
The meeting produced an agreement to retain DeBevoise another year and for the College of Arts and Sciences to open up a “conversation” on establishing a Middle Eastern Studies program, according to an email released by Hungry for Education.
