UW student protesters refuse to leave encampment

• The encampment, called Popular University for Gaza, includes more than 100 tents, per university student paper The Daily.
• On Sunday, more than 500 pro-Israel counterprotesters organized a non-denominational church on campus, gathering on Red Square and around the perimeter of the fortified encampment, The Daily reported.

The intrigue: The university has so far been reluctant to cut ties with Boeing, the Seattle Times reported.

• Since 1917, Boeing has donated more than $100 million to the university, including $12.5 million in endowments.
• Boeing's website says the aerospace company provides nine distinct products to the Israel Defense Forces.

The school has not specified whether there will be special security for commencement on June 8.
