From Yale: College Council to Petition against Taliban?

I’d thought that the students might actually help remove the Taliban from Yale, when the Yale Daily News reported on Friday March, 24:

“ The YCC [Yale College Council] is currently considering drafting a resolution to petition the University's administration to deny Hashemi admission as a full-time student, YCC President Steven Syverud '06 said Thursday. The idea was introduced to the council by former YCC representative Austin Broussard '06, and current representatives are discussing the controversy via e-mail, YCC Vice President Marissa Brittenham '07 said.”

Unfortunately it has now been a week since I’ve heard anything of such a resolution – but I still hope the YCC will do more than just ‘consider’ drafting it.

What is so difficult here? Taliban. T-a-l-i-b-a-n. I do not understand the U.N. approach.
