Pro-Palestinian protesters occupied Columbia University’s Butler Library during study days, just before finals week. Acting President Claire Shipman reported injuries to two public safety officers during a “crowd surge” caused by individuals allegedly unaffiliated with the university.
- Protesters refused to show identification and leave Room 301, violating university policies.
- NYPD officers were called to remove more than three dozen trespassers, leading to arrests.
WABC video depicted the protest as peaceful, despite the university’s request for increased security.
