I’d just put that shit on my resume and state that it’s revoked and why. Whatever kind of employer would look down on that is not someone they will want to work for anyway.
I’ve not heard of too many employers really going through the effort to verify most degrees, although that likely changes the higher up the academic tree you get. I only have a bachelors and I’ve never had it actually verified.
What stops the students from renouncing the protests (under duress) and then just getting back into them once they have degrees?
Probably the fact that if the NYU staffers pushing this are any smart, they’ll withhold the degrees for a few weeks (maybe even months) after the exam or until the protests die down anyway. Sure, they’re bound to do something incredibly stupid right after, but they’ve got what they’ve got.
Masks don’t really provide anonimity (you’d need to accompany with anti-IR glasses to protect yourself from iris scans, and probably prostethics for your face as well as your legs to avoid gait recognition from camera footage), and they do nothing if you are grabbed by an ICEtard.
But yeah in the overall, I don’t really see a problem with renouncing them “officially” (just strike an X on the signature, you can later claim that that was not your signature and was forced under duress) and participating on the protests anyway. It’s not like lawyers are expected to not lie and trick their way out of things under capitalism anyway, so perhaps the students (and the faculty) should consider this as an extra period test.

Although, I’d like to think that any student who defies NYU’s demands will fare much better in the long run than a university that kowtows to facists
They can just revoke their degrees… Sounds insane, but it happened already to other protesters in the US.
Wow, I had not heard about this but it certainly delegitimizes other degrees that weren’t revoked.

Put it on your resume and don’t say anything.

For the most part that is true, but this is law school, and I’m pretty sure you need the degree to practice law.
Sue the university if they retract a degree based on 1st amendment rights.
And have a mass sit in at the University of all those who’s degrees have already been revoked until they are reinstated.
Nah, I watched the documentary Suits, it totally works!
Have to go to prison first, though…

What about renouncing them officially but then attending protests a few blocks down while wearing masks?

Principles. You’d have to be an asshole to publicly endorse genocide
