Headline is misleading. The article notes that they arent necessarily withholding them permanently, but because they are going through the disciplinary process, and so currently not in good standing, they can't get them at graduation.
Similar to Israel telling Palestinians that they can't have a state "right now" and have to come to "agreeable" terms first.
If there is no term given it means permanently.
But they did "give the terms": they are not in good standing right now, and when the disciplinary action is complete then a final decision will be made.
As long as the students are not allowed to graduate the headline remains correct.
It might be technically correct because bar does not necessarily mean permanently, but it implies that, and your claim that it means permanent is definitely false, especially if you're basing it on the logic you used to claim it's permanent.
Technically are permanently barred unless overturned. But the title never used the word permanent.
The articles notes that they are not in good standing because they are in the process of disciplinary action. So considering this is not a ruling against them that needs to be overturned. If you have some kind of evidence otherwise, I would like to see it.
