Joy Lind van Hasselt also had her hands tied together and wore a keffiyeh.
It was one of many protests by the university’s school of social work.
The university has been at the centre of the anti-Israel student movement, sparking nationwide protests.

Her degree is in Social Activism, so might as well tear it up, it's worthless.
U might as well delete ur comment, it's worthless.
Lol fr 😂 free Palestine though
Lol
Worthless but tax payers will pay her loan
A degree in 'social activism?' 😂😂😂 oh my, this country...no wonder our universities are the stinking cesspools they are!
US bachelor degrees are about to be worthless anyway
In Europe, we see Harvard, Stanford, etc the same as Oxford. Who has better Universities than Europe and America?
@@iFryTubeRussia and China
@@usamabhatti903 Then why are UK universities crawling with Chinese Students?
Keep wishing, Mr. Wishing Well.
This was a Masters program...
I like the fake support from her colleagues who cheered but held their degrees close to their hearts.
😂😂😂
They all showed support in SOME way!! JUST BECAUSE THEY DIDNT RIP UP THEIR DEGREES DOES NOT MEAN THEY DO NOT SUPPORT!! AND IT ALSO DOES NOT MEAN ITS FAKE!!

Don't underestimate the power of stupid people.
Dont underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers
The comments section is filled with them. A bunch of morons thinking they are smarter than Ivy League graduates.
I don’t know about power, it looks as if that piece of paper got the best of her. Fumbling through tearing it up, goodness.
Don't be so harsh on yourself.
@@alex.velasco thanks for owning up.
Hahahaha
Proof that education doesn't mean intelligence.
The United States should end military aid to Israel.
1. Military Aid to Israel is unnecessary. Israel is a very prosperous country and more than capable of paying for its own military.
2.Military aid to Israel is a security risk to the United States. Israel has been selling American developed military technology to China for more than a decade. These sales have been instrumental in the modernization of China's military.
3.Military aid to Israel is a diplomatic liability,
4, Military aid to Israel is illegal under American law. Israel's human rights violations disqualifies Israel from receiving military aid under the Leahy law and Israel's refusal to allow inspections of its nuclear sites or sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty makes any aid to Israel illegal under the Symington Amendment.
@@RobertPaulsen-gk8qcwhere did the Israelis get the technology for its nuclear bombs and the enriched uranium mmmmmm one guess
Yeah how dare they not obey like intelligent people like yourself
@@bryanbrookes6366 They stole it from the United States. I've heard of the Apollo Affair too.
@@RobertPaulsen-gk8qc no
She doesn’t care, she’s not paying for it. Her mommy and daddy are.
The taxpayers are!! Another wonderful gift from Biden
Straight grants and LOANS....AMERICAN TAX PAYERS
Since they ripped it, the real diploma should not mail to them
She won't find a decent job here anymore, but I'm sure they will employ her in Gaza.
GO Israel
corporations will employ anyone that will make them big profits so if she's an engineer and creates the next business idea she will have a job corporations don't have political views all they see is money
@@carlos-ik1pc highly doubt they will hire someone that is so political, there have tons of other candidates that does not draw attention to themselves and make the company look bad
There are plenty of restaurants she can work at.
@@hey.hombre ask AOC.
wtf is she supposed to "portray"?
that her degree is useless?
Lol.
Pretty much yeah, look at the flags in her, she probably studied Gender Study, so it's worthless.
Her major is social work. She is against it.
Haha!
Columbia University is useless is what she meant to say, so future students can ignore that University in their bucket list of Universities.
And just like that, Israel magically stopped attacking Palestine. Hamas magically stopped attacking Israel. Palestine was magically freed. Its a goddamn miracle.
No they all have a christmas truce type thing where they all shake their hands on the battlefeild and exchange food. Then they go home happily ever after
😄🤣
Well, the protests did put pressure on Biden, bc of that, he stopped giving bombs to israel.
@@GuPKay😂😂😂😂😂
😅🤣🤣😂🤣
want to erase a Democracy while living in ONE
Exactly!
Israhell is a White European Theocracy in Asia
Well said.
Exactly. They want to be ruled by terrorists
Israel loby controls both parties. Wat kind of democracy is this. It serves foreign countries Ukraine and Israel. Not USA citizens.
She should be in Gaza fighting instead of living peacefully in the US.
Israel prevents that. Even journalists can't go in the genocide zone.
"peacefully" wow, u still think that u have peace and freedom, these ppl prefer d!e and lose every thing for the right thing and u here barking that u have peace while the PEACEFUL protestors are being harassed by the "FREEDOM OF SPEECH COUNTRY"
Yes and see what damage from Hamas does to her.
@@julimaynes2193 "American Tourist found mutilated and dismembered after 2 week search launched by IDF forces"
Exactly!
I bet she won’t tear up the real diploma
Free America from AIPAC!
I was thinking the same thing. It was a very melodramatic gesture but basically worthless.
Long live AIPAC
It doesn't cost _that_ much to have the university issue a new copy.
I don't think they get the real diploma at the graduation!
Just craving attention!
One minute of fame and a life time of being labeled an empty head!
Sometimes education makes people so dumb that they stop living in reality😂.
College is becoming a joke
Because that does so much for Palestine.
I know, right?
This stunt makes her more important than whatever cause she's followed.
Where is Palestine? Exactly.
It gets people talking. And sometimes, those conversations lead to folks actually looking into the matter.
@@MagicalMedicok...what is YOUR SOLUTION?
I was sympathetic towards the situation in Palestine until these people showed up. I think they care less for them than I do, I don't use the suffering of those people to boost my ego.
13 federal judges refuse to hire Columbia University grads after protests.
People who believe in our Constitution would not want to work for fascist "judges" anyway.
So what? They probably weren't worth working for anyway
@@Mrs.EmmaPeel fortunately, there are also few for those without
They shouldn't be hired anywhere
So what????
I don't think ripping it will knock off the student debt.
I'm old enough to remember when an Ivy League degree was very prestigious. Now it's a laughing stock.
Exactly. Between the lowering of academic admission standards in favor of other factors to the blatant plagiarism. To the scandals coming out on falsifying their study data. They've gone downhill fast.
But don't smash your slave-made phone
Unfortunately we are all a part of the slave trade whether we like it or not
Yes, and the phone which would have Israeli technology and software in it. She shouldn't be using a mobile phone at all. Or any type of computer for that matter. A rotary phone and a Commodore 64 will do just fine.
Use a Commodore? Well, I hope she doesn't have anything against jews... 😉
@@danielkopel8186 I just looked up Commodore's founder - Jack Tramiel. I had no idea. I loved the Commodore. Had a C128.
@@DoinHey, don't knock my Commodore. I loved those computers!
Those are hundreds of thousands of US-Dollar's in tuition costs well spent.
She’ll have them forgiven anyway. Par for the course.
Says a lot about American education
Government bail her debt out
@@Oneshotup yep and guess who pays for the student loan forgiveness (Us, aka the average American Taxpayer) They dont just magically delete the debt sadly.
@@GuPKaybidenomics at work!
How did these people even get diplomas?
They have no respect for their parents and their upbringing.
their parents created them.
Her parents must be proud
She will be living with them for quite a while, and I somewhat doubt she will be married or employed any time soon
As a parent i would be very impressed and proud.
A degree from Columbia? Of course, the parents are proud.
@@heraclesreborn and not just any degree, but a ripped one! 😃
What a waste 😂
So dramatic and performative. These tantrums will garner no progress.
This is horrible god is good
Says who?
@@NoName-ke6gq OK I'll bite. What progress did this garner?
Columbia should be ashamed
The city of Columbia, South Carolina? Why, what did they do?
The Force of STUPIDITY is Strong in those Students.
This is what woke students looks like
This is what humans students looks like, what a shameful comment.
Genocide is when Hitler killed 1.3 million Jews in 3 months. Not 30,000 in 6 months.
It’s like the Jews aren’t even trying.
Yea it’s the latest Cause célèbre for the immature little Toddler Minds.
Their like cats and shiny objects .. easily distracted
They will have moved on to the next thing in 3 to 4 months!
Idiots. Yes
Yep sad psycho cases
Thinking her tearing it up on stage was more about her having a few minutes of fame than anything else.
Fame? Lol huh ? This is disrespect to them for not divesting what do u think she did it for clout ? & "few mins" she was there for 10 seconds..
🎯
Yup. Nothing like showing the world how clueless she really is. But she thinks she’s learned a new buzzword: genocide.
Will she write the degree on her job application? Probably she will, just like the Hamas.
The majority who saw this think it was a powerful, wonderful and moral statement.
So when she is asked to provide proof of graduation the university should just not respond.
I'm embarrassed for her, and I'm pretty hard to embarrass...
yet on her linked in she'll still say she graduated from there, and use it in every way to get a job still lol
Nobody is hiring Columbia students, lmao
Intellectual... I'm sure she can't even find Palestine on the world map.
And she probably doesn't know what "From the river to sea" means, either.
She looks like she can find the nearest buffet with a blindfold on though.
Tuition loans and the record of payments need to be made public. These students are stealing from taxpayers who pay their tuition.
Should give their places to other people who would have appreciated the chance, but could not afford to go.
Rename Columbia University as Palestine U. -American Division.
Heh, America itself is Isreal anyway
Columbiastine University 🤡
Rename NYPD , US Branch of Tel Aviv Police.
@@IrfanAli-qp1gm That is not clever.
Concubine University😛
Real damage being done to the Columbia brand. Who in their right mind would employ these unhinged people.
Unfortunately George Soros, Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation are a few who do now
100%
Why did she have the face of a sumo wrestler as she tore her degree up?
Extreme virtue signaling
They think that people need their help to figure things out.
Degrees are worthless these days!
Are they really though? I graduated with a Bachelors in Physics and a minor in mathematics in May of 2021. I currently make 96k working as an industrial physicist, with goals of doing my PhD next fall. It’s statistically shown that college graduates earn more over a lifetime, vs non degree holders. This isn’t true for every single degree holder obviously, but on the macro scale it still holds true.
It really depends on what the degree is, a degree in say Art History doesn’t open as many door as a degree in Physics.
I had 7 employees who worked for me, they all had their degree. I had a GED. Hmmmm. Drive and ambition are more important. And made $83k a year Josh..
@abubakarbetts7906 and right on to that!👍
Genocide is when Hitler killed 1.3 million Jews in 3 months. Not 30,000 in 6 months.
It’s like the Jews aren’t even trying.
I'm an immigrant..and now Citizen..got my second degree in the US..proud and working hard..grateful I didn't have to go through this when I graduated.
Good boy.
@@alex.velasco that sounds wrong bro 💀
Tantrums, that’s what we are witnessing. I hope her parents are proud of their toddler.
I will now only hire from trade schools and experience. These brats would destroy my business.
those billion of dollars from Qatar sure paid off...
Their plan is working!!
Ripping off degree is no way of showing solidarity
Fly to Gaza do😂
But - it is a perfect way of showing stupidity !
Damn they really think doing this will make a difference to anyone....?
By doing this they got 2 min of attention which they might not have got in their entire life😂
Stupidity.
FREE THE WORLD FROM PALETINES PROTESTERS
She wont need it anyway when shes packing burgers at McDonalds.
The real diploma arrives in the mail a couple of weeks later.
Who knew a college degree could elevate a person's narcissism?
To be fair, her degree was in Social Studies so she will only miss her certificate when applying for jobs in her chosen career as a barista.
But anyway, she will be at the University office next Monday claiming her human rights to receive a certificate copy.
She got her moment... didnt save anyone, change anything, or alter fates... but she got her moment, thats for sure
Best comment
I'd rather the truth to become a trend.. It does wayy more good than harm. And it's still doesn't reduce the weight and purpose of this whole movement!
@@judyclarkson5887 What happens when it trends?
@@KingLightningSRBut if it does I have a feeling the majority will believe she is a fool. It hardly does your cause any good whatsoever.
@jonnyh9388 I'm in no support of her, rather the opposite. It was a jab at how pointless her actions were towards her cause. Not my intention to side with anyone
And in 6 weeks
" Wah wah wah why doesn't anyone want to hire me?! "
America has no future
then make your own business
@WISEspade77
@@yhwhisking-dw2iewith these type of people it sure won’t 🤦🏻♀️
It wasn't her degree. It was a folder holding a letter that congratulated her on graduation and tells her that her degree will be mailed to her address on file.
These students don’t give a rats behind about Gaza. It’s pure 1960s cos play.
??? They're sacrificing their future employment/careers. They're furious their money is being used to fund the Palestinian genocide. I'm furious my tax dollars are used towards it too. IT"S MY MONEY! I EARNED IT! IT SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR WARS AND MURDERS!
I don't want any of them touching my burger or fries!
Lol..wry comment, May soon be true
She would eat it all. Looks like she has never missed a meal!
so why not quit school all together. what a bunch of narcissists.
Why would a students ripped up her diploma like that? Is she proud that she survived as a student at Columbia? : )
Why is the university even allowing this?
They are afraid.
Qatar pays.
U can do whatever u like , no stopping u...
Oh, it's your business?
It's, I think, because the University, unlike in the case of the majority of the comments writers here, fully embraces the notion of democracy and freedom of expression!
I bet she wouldn't have done that to a box of donuts
😂
Awww they seriously thinks they're doing something.
If she paid for the degree....no problem. If some one or fund paid, they deserve a refund.
In the future they will realise they were turkeys voting for Christmas what a bunch of 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
In the future this will be remembered exactly the same as the 1960s anti-war protests were remembered: they will be viewed as romantic activism.
wrong holiday but i appreciate the effort
Isn't that what right wingers do everyday in the UK?
@@robto No they won't. We're not even fighting this war.
@@Scullgaming962no it’s not
They ripped it because they know they're not worthy of it.
Nice! Also 100% fact!
yea i dont think "Art History" degrees are that important
The last girl legit thought she is walking on some "miss america" contest
How is ripping her degree gonna help the Palestinians?
Please revoke her diploma.
These brats are insufferable
Brats is a perfect description.
no more insufferable than the US funding criminal regimes
Brats with degrees, unlike most posters on these online boards.
They have their own choices and none of your business anyway
Imagine calling someone against a literal genocide a brat for ripping up paper
Trust me that degree in social work is as worthless as the paper it’s printed on. 200 K degree with a 30 K job with attitude to match.
Not been on a hunger strike anyway.
School of Social Work.
Enough said. 😂
What's your university degree in? Drop-out?
Absolutely! The Social Workers in my life are the most compassionate and driven people I've ever known. Glad to see the next generation is carrying that forward!

My foot
I said nothing about her degree or the value of her degree 😂😂😂
Many unis reverted ties with Israel. Also, taking a stand is a moral obligation even if it doesn't have any effects.
It's horrendous - Israel's war on Gaza
It's good to protest against it.
She tore the paper in a form of protest and this doesn't make her short of the knowledge she has acquired.
America deserves better students
America deserves better priorities
I feel bad for her parents. Spending all that money on complete garbage.
They give the term class clowns a whole new meaning
Imagine spending years studying hard and sacrificing your free time for your career, only to have it all ripped away in minutes.
This shows they learned to be on the right side of history❤
It's only a piece of paper they still have the qualifications

So it was symbolic because her transcript still exists.
just wanted to show herself to make the headlines..
in the next 20-30 years from now she will be like
"..I was young and stupid and very foolish to do that.."
The new generation are citizens of the world!
The new generation are complete and utter fools.
They will grow out of it a couple months once back home after uni
Citizens of Moronia.
Those who don't want their taxes maintaining the cush lifestyle of Israelis?
They are the hope. Finally a generation with some courage.
Symbolic of where her career is headed.
Whatever is going on, if its not stopped, it wouldn't be long your be on same boat
she won a degree in humanity .
And it affects their lives🤔 shame they haven’t protested about all the global conflicts around the world!
and doing so while wearing a lgbtqiabcde5+2 scarf. wow
Jokes on her it was worthless to begin with
I'm not religious but many of these women aren't dressed as 'haram' so... the standards of Hamas...
So what's going to happen now they ripped up the degree and don't accept it because of the pro Palestinian. What does that lead to their future?
Waste of air.
Who farted?
Wait - is this a graduation in NYC? Or a graduation in Gaza?
These University get hell amount of funds from Qatar which is the very rich radical Islamic country. This explains everything !!
She ripped up a social work degree not a nuclear physicist degree. Dollar store items are worth more.
Israel has not exterminated all Palestinians, because Israel does not want to, even though Israel is able to do so.
Palestinians have not exterminated all Israelis, because Palestinians are not able to, even though they want to do so.
Free America from AIPAC!
