Pro-Palestinian protests at New Mexico State University (NMSU), the University of Washington (UW), and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have led to arrests and peaceful demonstrations. At NMSU, 13 individuals were arrested after refusing to leave the building where the commencement ceremonies were taking place. The arrested individuals face charges including felony battery on a peace officer and felony criminal damage to property. The community in Las Cruces has responded with mixed reactions to the protests and arrests, with some supporting the right to peaceful protest and others concerned about the disruption caused by the demonstrations. In response to the protests, NMSU police have increased security resources for the commencement ceremonies, although this is unrelated to the protests. Meanwhile, at UW, pro-Palestinian and pro-Israel demonstrators clashed verbally but remained peaceful. The pro-Israel march called for the return of Israeli hostages from Gaza, while the pro-Palestinian demonstrators demanded that the university divest and cut ties with Israel and companies like Boeing. The University of Washington administration has faced mounting pressure to respond to the encampment as opposing groups grow increasingly vocal. The pro-Palestinian demonstrators continue to demand that the University divest and cut ties with Israel and companies like Boeing. The encampment has remained peaceful since its establishment. The community's reactions to the protests and arrests at NMSU, UW, and UCLA highlight the complex and contentious nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with strong opinions on both sides. The protests on college campuses across the country, including NMSU, UW, and UCLA, are a reflection of the growing pro-Palestinian sentiments and the desire for a peaceful resolution to the conflict. However, the demonstrations have also raised concerns about the potential for antisemitism and the need to balance freedom of expression with maintaining order and ensuring the safety of all individuals involved. Approximately 25 pro-Palestinian protesters were arrested at UCLA on suspicion of willful disruption of university operations. The protests occurred ahead of a scheduled meeting of the University of California Board of Regents to discuss the appointment of a new UCLA chancellor. The campus has been experiencing tensions due to protests, accusations of unfair labor practices, a congressional inquiry into the campus' response to antisemitism, lawsuits, and accusations of excessive force by campus police. The protesters set up an encampment, blocked access to the plaza, and used amplified sound, disrupting final exams. The police declared the gathering an unlawful assembly and ordered the protesters to disperse. The protesters were cited and ordered to stay away from the UCLA campus for 14 days. The protests resulted in damage to property and vehicles. The main commencement ceremonies at UCLA are scheduled for Friday.
