Early on Thursday morning, some few protesters walked into Emory University’s school and set up tents on the Quad, according to a statement from Emory University to Fox News. ” These people are not members of our community. As our kids finish their classes and get ready for finals, they are activists trying to undermine our school. Vandalism and other forms of criminal behavior on college are not tolerated by Emory. The Williams Police Department called Atlanta Police and the Georgia State Patrol for help and ordered the team to keep.
According to its site, Cal Poly Humboldt is still occupied by demonstrators as of Thursday, forcing the school to be locked through Sunday and move to distant groups.
Gideon Askowitz, leader of Israeli Students for America, claimed on X Thursday evening that he was assaulted when he walked into a CUNY school’s pro-Palestinian campsite.
