Clockwise from top:

This is a list of pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses in 2024 since protests escalated on April 17, beginning with the Columbia University campus occupation. As of May 6, student protests have occurred in 45 out of 50 states in the United States, and the District of Columbia, with encampments, occupations, walkouts or sit-ins occurring on almost 140 campuses.[1]

Twenty encampments have been established in the United Kingdom;[2] across universities in Australia,[3] beginning with the University of Sydney;[4] and in Canada, including an encampment at McGill University.[5] On May 7, protests spread further on European campuses after mass arrests at the University of Amsterdam campus occupation;[6] including occupation of campus buildings at Leipzig University in Germany, Sciences Po in France, and Ghent University in Belgium.[7] As of May 8, protests have taken place in more than 25 countries.[8] On May 13, approximately one thousand Dutch students and university staff took part in a national walk-out.[9]

Background

Pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses escalated in April 2024, spreading in the United States and in other countries, as a part of wider Israel–Hamas war protests. The escalation began after mass arrests at the Columbia University campus occupation, led by anti-Zionist groups, in which protesters demanded the university's disinvestment from Israel over its alleged genocide of Palestinians.[10] In the United States over 2,950 protesters have been arrested,[11] including faculty members and professors,[12][13] on over 60 campuses.[11] On May 7, protests spread across Europe with mass arrests in the Netherlands.[14][15] As of May 12, twenty encampment have been established in the United Kingdom, and across universities in Australia and Canada.[16][17] Some protesters have called the movement a "student intifada".[a][21]

The different protests' varying demands include severing financial ties with Israel and its affiliated entities, transparency over financial ties,[22] and amnesty for protesters.[23] The occupations have resulted in the closure of Columbia University and Cal Poly Humboldt;[24][25] Portland State University pausing financial ties with Boeing over its ties to Israel;[26] and Trinity College Dublin agreeing to end certain investments in Israeli companies.[27] Several other universities made agreements with protesters in order for encampments to be dismantled,[28] some universities' graduation ceremonies were canceled,[29][30] and protests occurred at various graduation ceremonies in May 2024.[31][32] Universities have suspended students, with some also expelled.[12][33] The protests have been compared to the 1960s anti-Vietnam protests,[34] the 1968 protests,[35] and protests against apartheid in the 1980s.[36]

Over 200 groups have expressed support for the protests,[37] as well as Jewish U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders and multiple progressive members of Congress.[38] Some prominent pro-Israel figures have described the protests as antisemitic,[39] including President Joe Biden,[23] former president Donald Trump,[40] U.S. governors,[41][42][43] and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.[44] Pro-Palestinian and Jewish student protesters at Columbia have insisted the protests are not antisemitic.[45][46] The police response to the protests has also been criticized by various Democrats[47][48][49] and human rights organizations.[50][51]

List of countries

Argentina

On April 25, around 20 students held a sit-in in the lobby of NYU Buenos Aires, aiming to show solidarity with NYU protesters in Manhattan and calling on the institution to cut ties with Israel.[52][53]

Australia

University of Sydney

"Gaza Solidarity Encampment" at the University of Sydney, April 26, 2024

On April 23, an encampment was set up at the University of Sydney, in the main Quadrangle, underneath the historic clock tower. Students have been supporting the camp by donating food, materials and supplies.[4] Chief executive of the university, Vice Chancellor Mark Scott is allowing the protests to continue, despite incidents such as graffiti that are being investigated, because protest and free speech are "part of who we are", noting other protests related to issues such as the World War I conscription debate and the Vietnam War anti-war movement.[54]

University of Melbourne

On April 25, University of Melbourne students began an encampment on the South Lawn of the main campus in Parkville. Protestors and counter-protestors have been regularly interacting, including a standoff where both groups stood on either side of a moat.[55][56] Far-right political activist Avi Yemini attended a "No Hate" rally on May 3 in support of Israel. The protesters were outnumbered by Palestine protesters, including those from the encampment. There was a scuffle between him and two pro-Palestine protesters, where allegedly they had a microphone shoved in their faces and one of them was pushed to the ground by a bodyguard. An executive of the Melbourne University Jewish Students' Society, which helped organised the rally, said that they were disappointed with Yemini "co-opting" the rally, with they said was "dehumanising" to both the encampment and Jewish students, with him turning a day that was supposed to be about "unity" into something now "clouded by his image".[57] On May 15, demonstrators began occupying the Arts West building. They also unofficially renamed the building to "Mahmoud’s Hall", referencing a Palestinian student killed in Palestine before he was due to begin studies at the University of Melbourne. Classes in the building have been cancelled.[58] On May 16, deputy vice-chancellor Michael Wesley announced that Victoria Police were authorized to use force to evict the protesters from the building.[59][60] A meeting was held between protesters and university administrators was held on May 17, but no agreement was reached.[61]

Monash University

An encampment was started at Monash University on May 1. The camp was regularly attacked, with protesters alleging they were physically assaulted and verbally harassed. On May 2, the camp was attacked by counter-protesters draped in the Australian and Israeli flags, who destroyed the camp kitchen and shook a protesters tent whilst she slept. Police attended, but no arrests were made, with 10 people being given a move-on direction. A GoFundMe was started to fund the repair of the damage caused.[62] Following this incident, the Victorian Greens issued a statement calling for better protection of protesters from universities and the police.[63] On May 8, counter-protestors attempted to storm the stage where speeches were being conducted, with the protesters and counter-protesters separated by university security. Not all interactions between opposing groups have been violent, however, as an Israel supporter and a Palestine supporter were photographed shaking hands after discussing the war.[64] On May 8, Monash ordered the removal of "Zionist not welcome" signs, saying they "likely constitute harassment and/or vilification".[65] Police are investigating the harassment of the camp.[66] The encampment was cleared on May 17 after encampment organisers informed the university they would be dismantling it.[67] Some protesters claimed it was not a voluntary decision, claiming that they had been picked off one by one individually during the week and banned from the encampment area under threat of suspension or expulsion, with the few protesters remaining telling the university security not to dismantle the camp. Video shows roughly fifteen security guards packing up tents and sleeping bags.[68]

University of Adelaide

On May 1, an encampment was started at the University of Adelaide. The University said that it supported free speech and lawful protests, but would not tolerate hate speech or intimidation of students or staff.[69] On May 8, protesters were attacked with fireworks after 11pm, with a video taken by a protester showing fireworks going off around the camp, with the protesters shouting "cowards" as the people responsible for the fireworks were not visible to the camp. Protesters said a similar incident happened on 6 May. South Australia Police said they are investigating the incident, and the university is increasing security.[70]

University of Queensland

Students at the University of Queensland held a rally and set up an encampment on April 29, with a rival pro-Israel camp also set up.[71][72] The pro-Israel protesters have said strangers came into their camp and spat on a sign that said "Zionist and proud".[73] On 9 May, protesters marched to the Boeing center on campus, with protesters including Greens MP Max Chandler-Mather saying Boeing products, including planes, missiles and other weapons were "taking lives". A window in the center was smashed, although police have not made any arrests or received any complaints relating to this incident or any other since the protest has started.[74] Protesters briefly occupied a building on May 16, with police not being called.[75] The university asked protesters to leave, but on May 18 protesters claimed they were unaware of this decision and would not be dispersing regardless.[76]

Australian National University

An encampment was started at the Australian National University on April 29.[77]

On April 30, Beatrice Tucker, organizer of the encampment, said in an interview with ABC Radio Canberra that “Hamas deserve our unconditional support – not because I agree with their strategy – complete disagreement with that, but the situation at hand is if you have no hope … nothing can justify what has been happening to the Palestinian people for 75 years”. By May 9, disciplinary proceedings had started against Tucker based on the contents of the interview, with her being provisionally suspended until a hearing on May 14.[78]

After a Zoom meeting on May 8 of the ANU Students' Association, allegations of anti-Semitic gestures, including a Nazi salute and a person putting a finger to below their nose to mimic a Hitler moustache, were put forth after the ANU Union of Jewish Students put forth a motion to address anti-Semitism. The group ANU for Palestine also alleged they were targeted with obscene gestures such as people mouthing the words "fuck you", giving "the middle finger" and making "gagging gestures". ANU has said it is investigating, whilst Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said that there needed to be a "dialling down" of debate, calling for "respect for everyone. Anti-Semitism has no place in Australia. Islamophobia has no place in Australia."[79]

On May 15, ANU requested the disbanding of the encampment, with seven students called into a meeting, faced with disciplinary action if they did not attend. In the meeting, they were again threatened with disciplinary action if they did not vacate by May 17. The students were asked to provide a list of names of other students participating in the encampment. Students that were at the meeting felt as if the meeting was an intimidation tactic reminiscent of McCarthyism.[80][81]

Deakin University

An encampment started at Deakin on May 7, and was originally slated to run until May 10, however the encampment ran beyond that date. By May 9, Deakin said it was investigating a staffer that was heard threatening to burn down the camp as well as incidents of hate speech, and police were investigating an altercation at Deakin.[66] Deakin requested the "immediate dismantling and removal of the current encampment" on May 13, however the camp did not disperse on that date and protesters have indicated they will not be dismantling the camp. The police responded neutrally, by saying they were aware of the decision and it was a matter for the university, and that police would respond to "potential breaches of the peace or criminal offences."[82] Deakin students said they would be holding a "closing rally" on May 22, and that more protests would follow next semester.[61]

Other encampments

An encampment started at Curtin University on May 1.[62][83] By May 7, encampments had been set up at RMIT University and La Trobe University.[84] The University of Wollongong set up an encampment on May 8,[85] with the protesters demanding the university cut ties with local steel manufacturer Bisalloy, which has provided Israeli defense companies with armour-grade steel.[86]

Responses

Group of Eight

The Group of Eight, of which the universities of Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, Queensland, Monash and ANU are apart of, has sought legal advice on the usage of terms such as "intifada" and "from the river to the sea", and has said it would ban those phrases if given definitive legal advice that they were unlawful. It said such phrases are "deeply offensive to many in the Jewish community". It sent a letter to Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus asking for legal advice on whether these phrases violate Commonwealth law.[87] Dreyfus wrote back stating that he does not give legal advice, noting the universities were taking external legal advice. He only stated that Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 "makes it a civil offence to do a public act that is reasonably likely to offend, insult, humiliate or intimidate people because of their race, colour or national or ethnic origins. A person aggrieved by an alleged act of racial discrimination can make a complaint to the Australian Human Rights Commission". Sydney and Monash urged students not to use the phrases, but stopped short of banning them.[88]

Police

Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Shane Patton has raised concerns that protests could become violent like they have in the US. He said he is meeting with university security. He said the police did not want the "existing tension", and that universities need to consider "how much more risk they’re accepting by allowing these encampments to continue".[89] Deputy Commissioner Neil Paterson wrote to the vice chancellors of the University of Melbourne, Monash, RMIT, Deakin and La Trobe, asking them to "carefully consider the risks" of allowing the encampments to continue, organizers disputing the risk of violence or escalation, saying the campuses were safe and that the encampments were a peaceful protest for the Palestinian people.[90] Universities have resisted the calls for the police to put an end to the protests, with the Group of Eight saying the encampments were held on public land and that police were free to enter at any time, with the universities having acted appropriately to breaches of the law, saying they were "in the business of de-escalation" and not wanting to see violence erupt, as it has in the US.[78] Police are being called "daily" to protests, with incidents of harassment and violence being investigated at Monash and Deakin.[66]

Labor Party

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has taken a neutral stance on the protests, saying he is worried about social cohesion. Albanese has criticized usage of the phrase "From the river to the sea", labelling it "provocative" and agreeing when asked whether it was a "very violent statement".[91][92] Education Minister Jason Clare has expressed concern about students feeling unsafe, saying "I want more people to go to university, not less". He said that whilst there was always going to be protests in a democracy, there is no place for bigotry including anti-Semitism or Islamophobia.[93]

The Greens

The Greens have expressed support for the protests. The Greens NSW issued a statement expressing solidarity with the encampment at the University of Sydney on May 2, calling for the government to increase pressure on Israel to achieve a permanent ceasefire, and calling for universities to cut ties with Israeli universities and weapons manufacturers supplying Israel.[94] Following the first attack on the Monash camp, the Victorian Greens issued a statement that universities and police need to better protect protesters.[95] Greens MPs have attended pro-Palestine protests since the start of the war.[96]

The Coalition

Peter Dutton, the opposition Liberal/National Coalition leader, has been sharply critical of the protests, calling universities that are allowing them to continue "weak". He said Prime Mininster Anthony Albanese “really needs to stand up and show some backbone here and call for an end to these nonsense protests".[97] Other members of the Coalition have been similarly critical, with education spokesperson Sarah Henderson and senior frontbencher Michael Sukkar saying the protests should be forcibly broken up, with Henderson saying universities should be fined if they do not do so. Henderson has called for a Senate enquiry into anti-Semitism at universities.[98][74] On May 9, Dutton compared the protesters chants of "from the river to the sea" to "what Hitler chanted in the 30s", in response to Education Minister Jason Clare saying the chants of "from the river to the sea" and "intifada" mean "different things to different people". A Jewish group formed after the start of the war, the Jewish Council of Australia, set up in opposition to other peak Jewish bodies in Australia such as the Executive Council of Australian Jewry with regards to support of Israel and the weaponization of antisemitism, said Dutton's interpretations were "a very bad faith reading" of the chants.[99][100]

Response

On May 9, with encampments taking place at institutions and concerns over what the president of the Union of Jewish Students described as rising antisemitism on campuses, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak held a meeting with vice chancellors of higher education institutions.[218] In response, academics accused Sunak of "scaremongering". According to The Guardian, "Vice-chancellors insist they have no desire to quell challenge or stop difficult discussions on their campuses, arguing that this is part of the core purpose of a university". Vice-chancellor of the University of the West of England, Steve West, said there "was no evidence" that UK protests were "getting out of hand", and called on the government to avoid inflaming the situation.[219] The president of advocacy group Universities UK, Dame Sally Mapstone, said universities "may need to take action" but that there "should be no presumption universities would clear protest encampments".[220]

As of May 11, an increasing number of academics have supported students’ demands and expressed solidarity with the protests. Hundreds of university employees, including 300 at Cambridge University,[221] have signed open letters condemning their universities financial ties with companies supplying arms to Israel.[219] The New York Times described authorities as a taking a more "permissive approach" to protests on campuses, with an emphasis on facilitating free speech, while British polling indicate that "the majority of people believe Israel should call a cease-fire".[221]

On May 13, after protesters set up an encampment at Birmingham University, they were ordered to leave the premises by the university who described the occupation as trespassing.[222] According to The Telegraph, the was the first time one of the 20 student encampments in the UK has been ordered to disperse,[2] with protesters claiming they have been "threatened with police action".[222]

A continued crackdown on April 27 led to approximately 275 arrests at Washington, Northeastern, Arizona State, and Indiana University Bloomington.[226][227] Several professors were among those detained at Emory University,[228] and at Washington University in St. Louis, university employees were arrested.[226] On April 28, counter-protests were held at MIT, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).[229] On April 30, approximately 300 protesters were arrested at Columbia University and City College of New York;[230] and pro-Israel counter-protesters attacked the UCLA campus occupation,[231][232][233] The following day over 200 arrests were made at UCLA.[234] Hundreds of arrests ensued in May, notably[b] at Art Institute of Chicago, University of California, San Diego and the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York.[235]
