Princeton University protesters said on their social media the university was “actively endangering students” by not allowing tents to be erected in order to shelter against the weather in the Princeton Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
The start of final exams at Rutgers University's New Brunswick campus were postponed Thursday morning because of a rally intended to cancel all the finals.
Five undergraduates, six graduate students, one postdoctoral researcher and one person not affiliated with Princeton University entered Clio Hall, home of the university’s graduate school and hung flags from several windows.
After an encampment was dispersed Thursday morning the protesters returned without their tents for a sit-in at the same Princeton University location and have remained ever since.
