Last Updated Wednesday, December 4, 2019 10:59AM ESTMONTREAL -- The Students' Society of McGill University board of directors has rejected a motion from its legislature demanding that one of its members step down for accepting a free trip to Israel.
“No student at McGill should ever be made to feel unsafe because of who they are and the religion they follow. Ideas should be debated, but these debates should never feel as though an individual is being put on trial.” In an attempt to defend its council's position, the SSMU insists that it discourages any kind of anti-Semitic attacks.
It argues that board members cannot accept gifts at a value of more than $50 as it “compromises their ability to be perceived as impartial when representing the entire student body.”
