More than 50 people were arrested on Indiana University's Bloomington campus last week as police clashed with pro-Palestinian demonstrators who had constructed encampments as part of an IU Divestment Coalition protest.
The big picture: Students across the country are demanding that their universities divest from businesses that have financial ties to Israel and those that are supporting the war in Gaza.
- The demonstrations have led to hundreds of arrests on at least 15 college campuses across the nation.
