Deadline Passes but Students at Columbia Encampment Have Not Dispersed

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched around the protest encampment at Columbia University on Monday as a deadline set by the university to clear its central lawn passed and students inside had not dispersed.

Columbia had given students until 2 p.m. to clear out from the encampment, warning them that they would face immediate suspension if they did not leave by then.
