Columbia University extends deadline by 48 hours for anti-Israel protesters to disperseColumbia University has given students another 48 hours to clear out the vast encampment covering the lawn in front of the Butler Library, warning that the school will consider “alternative options” if the protesters refuse to leave.
The spokesperson said the university was heartened by the “constructive dialogue,” but the decision to extend the deadline until Friday fed the narrative that the university has essentially surrendered to the anti-Israel protesters. Student protesters and sympathetic faculty blasted Ms. Shafik for calling in officers, who made more than 100 arrests, insisting that the encampment represents a peaceful protest.that the encampment threatens student safety. A rabbi affiliated with Columbia urged Jewish students last week to return home over concerns about their well-being in the increasingly anti-Israel and antisemitic campus climate.
