Some students were protesting Columbia University by tearing up their diploma. This doesn't actually mean anything because that's just a piece of paper. If they were serious protesters, then they would ask the school to take the degree back. Here's what ABC7 New York reported:

Graduates of the School of International and Public Affairs chanted 'Free Palestine' as they destroyed their sheepskins.

It was alumni day on campus.

The protests were in support of Mahmoud Khalil -- the Columbia grad student and protester now held by ICE agents.

Demonstrators also object to the concessions made to curb protests on campus. Some protesters also called for the dismissal of several Columbia University professors and administrators.
