Why is New York University making protesters watch The Simpsons as punishment?

The university decided that a certain number of students (it won’t clarify how many) would be required to write a “Reflection Paper”, which includes a discussion of why they were naughty and what they can do to make it right.

The modules include various exercises that students need to complete: in module 3, for example, are instructed to watch season 10, episode 7 of The Simpsons, Lisa Gets an A, in which Lisa cheats on a test. They are then instructed to answer 12 questions about the episode, including an analysis of whether Principal Skinner makes ethical decisions.
