Protest

Columbia University says it has begun suspending students who failed to comply with a 2 p.m. deadline Monday to vacate their encampment on the lawn.

Columbia University says it has begun suspending students Monday afternoon as tensions ran high following a 2 p.m. deadline to vacate the lawn.

This all came as the university’s administration threatened to enact mass suspensions and other disciplinary measures against those who have chosen to dig in on the lawn. “We have begun suspending students as part of this next phase of our efforts to ensure safety on our campus,” Chang said. “Students who agreed to leave and sign a form committing to abide by university policies will be allowed to complete the semester. Students who do not will be placed on suspension, ineligible to complete the semester or graduate and will be restricted from all academic, residential and recreational spaces.
