Protesters Injure Employee at Barnard College Protest

News summary

On Wednesday, pro-Palestinian protesters forcibly entered Barnard College's Milbank Hall, leading to the hospitalization of a staff member after being physically assaulted. The protest was organized by the Columbia University Apartheid Divest Coalition and Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine, demanding the reversal of expulsions for two students involved in a previous protest and the establishment of a transparent disciplinary process. Protesters occupied the administrative offices for hours, chanting and displaying Palestinian flags and graffiti. Barnard officials warned protesters to vacate by 9:30 p.m., and they eventually dispersed after a meeting with administrators was scheduled for the following day, though no promises or concessions were made. The protest highlighted ongoing tensions at the college concerning disciplinary actions against pro-Palestinian activists.
