Metro Atlanta student banned from MIT graduation ceremony after Palestine comments
A metro Atlanta student, set to speak at her university's degree ceremony, was forced to sit it out. The decision came after she made comments in support of Palestine a day earlier. 'You showed the world that MIT wanted a free Palestine,' said Megha Vemuri while speaking at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology commencement ceremony last Thursday as the class president. It is where she made comments about not just Palestine, but also criticized the university. 'You stood in solidarity with the pro-Palestinian activists on campus, you faced threats, intimidation, and suppression coming from especially your own university officials,' added Vemuri, who is an Alpharetta High School alum. After her speech, MIT decided that Vemuri, who had a role in an undergraduate degree ceremony the next day, couldn't attend. [DOWNLOAD: Free WSB-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] The speech wasn't the one Vemuri provided to officials beforehand. The university said in a statement, in part, 'the individual deliberately and repeatedly misleading commencement organizers and leading a protest from the stage, disrupting an important Institute ceremony.' 'I stand by and agree with MIT in what their decision happened to be,' Rabbi Larry Sernovitz of the Hillels of Georgia told Channel 2's Candace McCowan. Sernovitz works with college students, and said this wasn't the time or place for the comments. 'Universities have a duty not just to their students but to the United States to make sure students don't feel intimidated, harassed, or oppressed on campus,' Sernovitz said. 'You want to protest, that's fine, but not at graduation. Give people the freedom to celebrate their academic achievements and not have to worry that when they sit there, excited and celebrating, they're going to have to hear anti-Israel, anti-Jewish propaganda.' While Vemuri wasn't allowed at the degree ceremony, she did receive her degree. Channel 2 reached out to Vemuri, but didn't hear back.

US growth likely to slow to 1.6% this year, hobbled by Trump's trade wars, OECD says
WASHINGTON — U.S. economic growth will slow to 1.6% this year from 2.8% last year as President Donald Trump's erratic trade wars disrupt global commerce, drive up costs and leave businesses and consumers paralyzed by uncertainty. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development forecast Tuesday that the U.S. economy — the world's largest — will slow further to just 1.5% in 2026. Trump's policies have raised average U.S. tariff rates from around 2.5% when he returned to the White House to 15.4%, highest since 1938, according to the OECD. Tariffs raise costs for consumers and American manufacturers that rely on imported raw materials and components.

Trump's Tariffs Plunge US and Global Economy Into Slowdown
Donald Trump's combative trade policies have tipped the world economy into a downturn clouded in heightened uncertainty, with the US among the hardest hit, the OECD said. The Paris-based organization slashed its global forecasts for the second time this year, citing the impact of the American president's tariff onslaught. The combination of trade barriers and uncertainty are hitting confidence and holding back investment, it said, while also warning that protectionism is adding to inflationary pressures.
