NEW YORK, NEW YORK – APRIL 29: Columbia faculty members protect students in the Pro-Palestinian “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” in the West Lawn of Columbia University on April 29, 2024 in New York City. Pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched around the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” at Columbia University as a 2 P.M. deadline to clear the encampment given to students by the university passed. The students were given a suspension warning if they do not meet the deadline. Columbia was the first elite college to erect an encampment in support of Palestine with students demanding that the school divest from Israel amid the Israel-Hamas war, in which more than 34,000 Palestinians have been killed in the Gaza Strip.
