Dozens of pro-Hamas students seize control of historic Barnard College academic building
|
[NYPOST] Several dozen keffiyeh-clad anti-Israel protesters took over a building on the Barnard College campus early Wednesday evening to protest the expulsions of two students who stormed a Columbia University class in January and threw around flyers loaded with hateful rhetoric.
Videos circulating online, posted by Columbia Students for Justice in Paleostine on X, show the masked students lining a hallway in Milbank Hall, the oldest building on campus, beating drums and loudly chanting through megaphones.
One of the X posts made by the group — which proclaims "long live the student intifada" in its bio — includes a list of demands, among them a reversal of the expulsions, amnesty for students punished during last year’s anti-Israel campus protests and a public meeting with Dean Leslie Grinage and Barnard President Laura Rosenbury.
The group’s demands also include "abolition of the corrupt Barnard disciplinary process and complete transparency for current, past, and future disciplinary proceedings."
The pro-Hamas
 ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
student group claimed in a follow-up post that Barnard public safety has "harassed and shoved" several students, and knocked at least one to the ground. "Who are they really protecting?" the manic social media post read in all-caps.
The campus coalition Columbia University Apartheid Divest, led by Columbia’s branches of Students for Justice in Palestine and the anti-Zionist Jewish Voice for Peace, says in a statement that students are staging an “emergency sit-in” outside the dean’s office. The protest group tells participants to wear a mask and avoid swiping their university ID.
Jewish students post online that they have been blocked from entering the building and attending classes.

Pro-Palestinian protesters leave Barnard College building after injuring employee
Pro-Palestinian protesters who pushed their way into Barnard College’s Milbank Hall, which houses the offices of the dean, and assaulted a school employee, have departed, according to the school.
The protesters left Milbank Hall in the night “without further incident,” Barnard President Laura Rosenbury says in a statement.
“But let us be clear: Their disregard for the safety of our community remains completely unacceptable,” she says.
The school had warned that if the students were not gone by 9:30 p.m. officials could be forced to take “additional, necessary measures to protect our campus.”
The student group Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine said on the social platform X that protesters dispersed after the administration agreed to meet with them this afternoon.
