The University of Toronto says students involved in a pro-Palestinian encampment have 24 hours to consider its latest offer, which was made public on Thursday.
In a statement that outlines details of the offer, U of T President Meric Gertler says the university will not end partnerships with Israeli universities — something the demonstrators had been asking for — because it is committed to academic freedom."Our approach remains guided by our effort to balance our shared values, people's foundational rights and freedoms, and a desire for a peaceful resolution. We hope that the representatives will accept our offer.
Dozens of students, staff and faculty have been occupying a green space at King's College Circle on the university's St. George Campus in downtown Toronto around the clock since May 2. They've set up tents and canopies in solidarity with other encampments at universities throughout North America, calling for an end to Israel's war in Gaza.
