Students from Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), an official student organization, and Ohio State University Divest, an unofficial student organization, launched a concerted effort to petition 1,000 signatures to put BDS on the ballot.
Together with students from the Student Coalition for Accountable, Responsible, and Legitimate Elections Today (SCARLET), I submitted formal complaints to the USG judicial panel, highlighted several by-law infractions, and successfully nullified hundreds of petition signatures to guarantee BDS’s removal from the ballot, weeks before the election began.
