William Brangham:

So to get a different look at the unease at colleges and universities right now, both from the threats to federal funding, as well as the arrests of international students, we spoke to a trio of editors at student newspapers about what they’re seeing and how campus communities are reacting.

Maven Navarro, “The Crimson White”: I just feel like it’s instance after instance that national news outlets are paying attention to things going on college campuses.

Shea Vance, “Columbia Daily Spectator”: It is an incredibly unique time to be a member of the Columbia community.

Zhane Yamin, “The Michigan Daily”: When DEI was cut, I think then it really kind of hit home for a lot of people and it felt like, OK, this thing is real, this thing is here and this thing is affecting us.

My name is Zhane Yamin. I am a junior at the University of Michigan and I’m one of the co-editors and chief of “The Michigan Daily.”
