Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton faced student protests during a visit to her alma mater, Wellesley College, on Saturday.
Clinton returned to campus to receive the honor of having a college building named after her. Protesters lined up to harass attendees of a women-led democracy summit on campus that also featured Clinton.
Local news outlets say that angry students are also passing out pamphlets around campus that say Clinton is Wellesley’s “most beloved war criminal,” and argue that he has “blood on his hand.”
School administrators acknowledged the protest but did not condemn it.

“I encourage everyone participating in activism to follow the display policy and be mindful of our Student Code of Conduct so you can stay safe for yourself, and for our community,” said the vice president and dean of students Sheilah Shaw Horton in a statement.
Clinton is no stranger to facing protests during her visits to American universities. He was repeatedly interrupted by protesters at a demonstration at Columbia University in February, where students called him a “war criminal.”

Saturday’s protest came just days after Clinton threatened US voters during an appearance on the “Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon.
Fallon asked Clinton what she would say to voters who are “disgusted” that former President Trump and President Biden are the only two options.
“Get over yourself. Those are the two options,” Clinton responded.
“Yeah! I love that,” Fallon reacted.
“One is old, and effective, and compassionate, has a heart and really cares about people. And the other is old and charged with 91 felonies,” Clinton said.

“I don’t understand why this is even a difficult choice, really. I don’t understand it,” Clinton continued. “But we have to go through the election and hopefully people will realize what’s at stake because it’s an existential question. What kind of country are we going to have, what kind of democracy can we have and those explosive people is not paying attention. because it’s not like Trump, his enablers, his empowerers, his allies don’t tell us what they want to do. I mean, they’re pretty clear about what kind of of the country is what they want.”
