The students are expected to write a statement about how they would address a similar incident in the future.
“ASU is angry at me and wants to put me back in my place as a brown woman," Qureshi said. "ASU is punishing us for standing up for our friends and other students of color.”
ASU told KJZZ in a statement that when a student violates the ABOR Student Code of Conduct, they will be held accountable and appropriate remedial action will be taken. Remedial actions are meant to be educational, not punitive. They affirm university standards and encourage students to make better choices in the future.
But Qureshi is not only refusing to write the statement, she also said during the press conference she doesn't regret what she said during the incident.
It's not clear what will happen if the students refuse to comply.
