A look at the protests of the war in Gaza that have emerged at US colleges

By The Associated Press

Student protests over the Israel-Hamas war have popped up at many college campuses after the arrest of demonstrators at Columbia University. Police have arrested hundreds nationwide since detainments at Columbia on April 18. Officials are trying to resolve the protests as the academic year winds down, but students have dug in at several high-profile universities. Standoffs appeared to be coming to a head late Monday and Tuesday as police cleared encampments and arrested demonstrators at several campuses, including Columbia University. As cease-fire negotiations appear to gain steam, it isn’t clear whether those talks might inspire campus protesters to ease their efforts.
