Students and faculty at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., are protesting in support of Palestinians in the latest wave of pro-Gaza protests on college campuses.
In a statement, officials for GWU, a private university located within 1 mile of the White House, said protesters need to move by 7 p.m. as overnight encampments are not permitted. They also said the space where the protest is being held was not a viable option for demonstrations.
“University Yard was previously reserved and is not available for demonstrations,” the statement reads. “GW Law final exams are taking place at adjacent buildings.”
University officials also said “non-GW individuals” were not permitted to demonstrate on university grounds.
