Pro-Palestine students forced their way into Barnard College’s Milbank Hall on Wednesday and allegedly assaulted a staff member, law enforcement sources reported. Dozens of mask-wearing students laid siege to the hall on Feb.

According to Columbia University Apartheid Divest, the protesters demanded "the immediate reversal" of two student expulsions.

The group demanded that the university reverses the expulsions, gives amnesty to all students disciplined for anti-Israel protests, sets a meeting with Barnard leadership, and abolishes the college’s disciplinary system.
