Northwestern Drops Case Against Students Who Made Mock School Paper
-------------------------------------------------------------------

accusing Northwestern of being complicit in the genocide of
Palestinians. The reversal comes after the parent company of The Daily
Northwestern faced condemnation and threats to boycott the paper.
