UCLA warns student protesters could face suspension or expulsion due to claims that students were blocked from class.
Some UCLA faculty joined with Pro-Palestinian protesters at UCLA on Monday, April 29, 2024. Hundreds of Pro-Palestinian supporters joined in a march from their encampment in front of Royce Hall to areas around the campus. On Wednesday, UCLA announced it was investigating alleged attempts by protesters to block student access to class, while at USC President Caroline Folt entered the second day of talks with student protesters.
Pro-Palestinian protesters continued to occupy the grounds at UCLA in front of Royce Hall on Monday, April 29, 2024. Security has surrounded the encampment after a skirmish broke out Sunday between the Pro-Palestianian protesters and Israel supporters. Osako also said that campus security is being expanded following altercations that occurred last night, including “adding greater numbers of campus law enforcement, safety personnel and student affairs monitors.”
UCLA students set up a Palestinian solidarity camp at their Westwood campus on Thursday, April 25, 2024. The encampment comes one day after a protest on their cross-town rival USC. In a statement on Instagram, the Divest From Death Coalition said the talks were “deeply disappointing” and “indicative of a larger pattern of the administration’s failure to address the needs of its student, faculty and surrounding community.
The crowd’s chants to “free Palestine” echoed through the campus. They waved flags and DIY cardboard banners as many others looked on, some applauding, some just witnessing it all in silence.
