A look at the Gaza war protests that have emerged at Emory and other US college campuses

Student protests over the Israel-Hamas war have popped up on an increasing number of college campuses following last week’s arrest of more than 100 demonstrators at Columbia University.

The students are calling for universities to separate themselves from any companies that are advancing Israel’s military efforts in Gaza — and in some cases from Israel itself.

Coalitions of student groups have orchestrated protests on many campuses. The groups largely act independently, though students say peers at other universities inspire them.
