MIDDLEBURY, Vt. (AP) — A police chief investigating a protest that turned violent at a Vermont college says some of the people involved were not students.
Several hundred protesters at Middlebury College shouted down guest speaker Charles Murray, a social scientist who wrote a book discussing racial differences in intelligence. The college moved the March 2 talk to another location and livestreamed it, but it was drowned out by protesters.
