Some of the students who protested former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions' speech at Northwestern University in Illinois last month will receive citations including fines for trying to get in the way of police, university officials announced Sunday. “Following a month-long Northwestern University Police Department (NUPD) investigation, a small number of individuals have been issued citations by NUPD for disorderly conduct and interfering with the duties of a police officer. This is not right,” Sessions said at one point, according to tweets posted by Northwestern student journalists. One student, identified as Zachery Novicoff, told campus publication North by Northwestern he didn’t believe Sessions should be welcome. “That ends at overtly racist old white dudes.”The Daily Northwestern faced backlash after it ran a nine-paragraph apology for the way the paper covered the Sessions speech.
