A group of college students were arrested overnight after a protest that ended at the Claremont police station.

The students were part of a large group of protestors that first gathered for a sit-in demonstration at nearby Pomona College Friday night, according to the group Pomona Divest Apartheid that apparently organized it.

The protest was sparked by the removal of a apartheid wall supporting Palestine on the campus. The installation art piece consisted of eight wooden panels that were hand-painted by students with phrases and images.

Hundreds of students protested in front of Alexander Hall, where the wall was located. That's when police in riot gear showed up and detained several demonstrators. ...

These anti-Jooo uneducated children are really quite tiresome. Kudos to the administration for calling the police.

 Reports that multiple Pomona College students have been arrested after rushing into an administrative building to protest. The president threatened them with suspension immediately upon entering the building. Police arrived within minutes.

I am amazed that an academic had the courage to do this! Pomona College is definitely not conservative, and academics have been noteworthy for decades for spinelessness when faced with Lib/Prog idiocy.

Agreed. It is quite surprising.
