The president of Sonoma State University has been placed on administrative leave after publishing an email acquiescing to anti-Israel protesters' demands to divest and boycott Israel.
"For now, because of this insubordination and the consequences it has brought upon the system, President Lee has been placed on administrative leave," García wrote in a statement published Wednesday.
