Columbia Students Occupy Hamilton Hall After School Suspends Students over Gaza Encampment

HeadlineApr 30, 2024

Students at Columbia University took over Hamilton Hall just after midnight after the school began suspending students who refused to leave the Gaza Solidarity Encampment, which began almost two weeks ago. The hall was also the site of a historic student occupation in 1968. Students have renamed the building Hind Hall in honor of Hind Rajab, a 6-year-old Palestinian killed by the Israeli military in Gaza.

Protester: [echoed by the people’s mic] “This building is liberated in honor of Hind, a 6-year-old Palestinian child murdered in Gaza!”
