Update from McGill - 29-4-24 - 7h00 - Mise à jour de McGill-Staff | 29 Apr 2024
The
situation on the lower field of McGill University’s downtown campus has
shifted significantly. The number of individuals who have set up tents
on campus has tripled since Saturday. We have become aware that many of
them, if not the majority, are not members of the McGill community.Last
night we saw video evidence of some people using unequivocally
antisemitic language and intimidating behaviour, which is absolutely
unacceptable on our campuses. We condemn this in the strongest possible
terms and will act quickly to investigate.McGill has been steadfast in
its support of the rights of our campus community to freedom of
expression and freedom of peaceful assembly, with the understanding that
these must be exercised within the bounds of McGill’s policies as well
as the law.We have been clear that these encampments violate both.The
University has been in communication with lawyers retained by McGill
students in the encampment, to discuss conditions in place to ensure
safety as well as a timeline to remove the tents.Late in the day
yesterday, we were informed through their lawyers that the students have
refused to carry on these discussions and did not bring any proposals
or suggestions to further the dialogue. They have instead indicated that
they intended to remain on campus indefinitely.Our senior leadership
team is meeting now to discuss next steps regarding this matter and will
provide an update on our decision within short order.
Update on
the situation on campus / Le point sur la situation sur le campus-Staff |
28 Apr 2024-This message is sent on behalf of Fabrice Labeau, Deputy
Provost (Student Life and Learning)-Dear members of the McGill
community,
I am writing to provide an update on yesterday’s
news that a group of individuals had set up tents on the lower field of
McGill’s downtown campus. The protest is ongoing and as of this
afternoon has been peaceful. Although our open campuses welcome the
public for many authorized activities, the University is private
property. While members of the McGill community have the right to
freedom of expression and assembly within the bounds of University
policy, procedures and the law, erecting tents without approval violates
our policies and the law. Our top priority is ensuring the health
and safety of our community by minimizing the risk of escalation and any
potential harm that may ensue. That is why we have chosen to engage in
discussions with lawyers retained by McGill students in the encampment
to arrive at a swift resolution.In the meantime, McGill’s security team
is closely collaborating with Montreal police (SPVM) to ensure the
ongoing safety of the McGill community and of those protesting on the
lower field. As the senior leadership team continues to monitor the
situation, our response to any protest, demonstration, or occupation is
always guided by our existing University operating procedures and
policies. While we respond as quickly as possible, our actions must take
into account an array of unique circumstances, including an assessment
of the immediate risks to safety.We recognize that the situation is
evolving and we will continue to provide rapid updates throughout.
Thank you so much for your understanding and patience. Sincerely,
Fabrice Labeau-Deputy Provost (Student Life and Learning) On behalf of
the Emergency Operations Centre Rapid Response Group

Students camping out on the McGill
University campus in solidarity with Palestinians for a second day say
they won't go anywhere until the university divests from funds with ties
to weapons manufacturers, commercial banks, technology firms and other
companies they say are "complicit in upholding the apartheid regime of
Israel."Some students slept at the encampment overnight, while others
left and came back in the morning. They held Palestinian flags and signs
that read "McGill funds genocide" and "McGill, you have blood on your
hands." The encampment of about 20 tents was struck after students
launched similar protests on campuses across the United States.Two
student groups, McGill Hunger Strike for Palestine and Students for
Justice in Palestine, released a database earlier this month listing 50
companies that the university invests in that the groups say have "links
to the ongoing Palestinian genocide." tents behind a gate covered in
pro-Palestine signs on McGill University's lawn in Montreal.Companies,
banks and other organizations are included on the list for a variety of
reasons, according to the database — such as investing in firms that
provide weapons or technology to the Israeli military; operating in
illegal settlements; investing in Israeli companies; or operating in
Israel.In a statement, McGill University said it hires external fund
managers to handle its investments and "does not invest directly in
individual stocks or companies."Students set up 'indefinite'

satisfying to McGill student Umniah Tareq, who is Palestinian."I didn't
know there was so much money and so much tangible investment going to
the genocide of my people, the violence that happens back home," she
said.Tareq said it was "empowering" to see students come together and
make their voices heard. She said the university has so far ignored

highlighted at protests and teach-ins.A girl wearing a keffiyeh, round

Tareq was interrupted by Laura Nezri, a passerby who said she wanted to
"see the situation" for herself. She asked Tareq if she blamed Hamas for
the violence in Gaza. Tareq responded by saying she doesn't "engage
with Zionists.""I'm very concerned with what's happening. I'm very
worried," Nezri said. "I'm a Jew, I'm a proud Jew and I have no shame in
saying that."I think that we're at extremes. They stand up for so many
different principles, and with such a loud and obnoxious voice, but when
you give them your opposing opinion, they cut you off."Another student,
who didn't give their name out of fear of retaliation from the
university and law enforcement, told CBC the students are prepared to
camp out as long as they can: "We're not going anywhere."blue tents on a
lawn-Israel launched its war against Hamas after the militant group's
attacks on Israel on Oct. 7. During the attacks, some 1,200 people were
killed and around 250 were taken hostage, according to Israeli tallies.
More than 130 hostages are still being held in Gaza, including women and
children.Health authorities in Gaza say Israel's offensive in the
enclave has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians — the majority of them
women and children — and has led to the imminent risk of famine, the
destruction of key hospitals and, according to the United Nations, the
displacement of 1.9 million people.Professors show support-rofessors
like Michelle Hartman, who teaches Islamic studies, and Roberta La
Piana, who teaches neuroscience, came out to the encampments sporting
keffiyehs and holding signs of their own."I'm here to fully support the
students. I think they have extremely reasonable reasons to be here,"
said La Piana. "I'm hopeful McGill's administration will understand the
request from the students and will commit to a more moral and ethical
choice towards the divestment of all Israeli support."La Piana brought
her children to the encampment, where a zone for kids to make crafts was
set up. She said she and her kids made kites, in reference to Gazan
poet Refaat Alareer's last poem before he was killed by an Israeli
airstrike.A woman with short grey hair holds up a white kite that says

Here's
what's happening on U.S. campuses as student protests against Israel's
war in Gaza grow-University students face arrests amid calls for
ceasefire, demands to stop support for Israel-The Associated Press ·
Posted: Apr 25, 2024 8:32 PM EDT |
A person wearing a grey
hoodie and a t-shirt reading "Jews say ceasefire now" sits on the
ground, surrounded by a large crowd of people, holding a cardboard
protest sign.Demonstrations over Israel's war in Gaza have spread from
New York's Columbia University, where police tried to break up a protest
encampment last week.Some U.S. universities called in police to break
up demonstrations against the Israel-Hamas war, resulting in ugly
scuffles and dozens of arrests, while others appeared content to wait
out student protests Thursday, as the final days of the semester ticked
down and graduation ceremonies loomed.Student protest 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.Protests on many campuses have been orchestrated by
coalitions of student groups and largely act independently, though
students say they're inspired by peers at other universities.UN rights
chief calls for independent investigation as more bodies recovered from
Gaza mass gravesAlthough many students will soon leave for the summer
break, school officials worry that any ongoing protests could disrupt
May commencement ceremonies, while some Jewish students say the protests
have veered into antisemitism and made them afraid to set foot on
campus.Here is a look at the protests, and response to the
demonstrations, on some U.S. campuses in recent days.Columbia set stage
for national protests-Protesters set up a tent encampment at the Ivy
League university in New York last week.A group of negotiators
representing the protesters has been meeting intermittently with
university administrators since Friday to discuss their demands, which
include cutting financial ties with Israel and the companies involved in
the war in Gaza, as well as amnesty for students and staff facing
discipline for participating in the protests.A black, white, green and
red Palestinian flag waves on a pole in front of a crowd of tents on a
university campus.Those talks broke down on Tuesday night, according to
the lead negotiator, Mahmoud Khalil, after he said the university
threatened to send in police and the National Guard if the encampment
wasn't gone by midnight.Hundreds of students and faculty quickly packed
onto the lawn in the largest numbers since the start of the
demonstration. Overnight, the university backtracked, giving
demonstrators a 48-hour extension if the group agreed to block
non-students from the encampment and remove a certain number of tents.A
woman with her back turned lays flowers in front of posters of hostages
affixed on a wall in front of a large protest encampment on a university
campus.A spokesperson later denied that the university had suggested
calling the National Guard.While there have been confrontations and
allegations of antisemitic activity outside the university's gates,
police described students inside the encampment as peaceful and
compliant.Police first tried to clear the encampment last Thursday, when
they arrested more than 100 protesters.But the move backfired, acting
as an inspiration for other students across the country and motivating
protesters at Columbia to regroup.
U.S. House Speaker Mike
Johnson visited Columbia on Wednesday to meet with Jewish students over
concerns about antisemitism on college campuses. Johnson said Israel and
Jewish students on campus will not stand alone.A cardboard protest sign
bearing the words "Staff for a free Palestine" hangs in front of a
crowd of tents in a protest encampment on a university campus.Emory
protest entwined with 'Cop City' activism-Atlanta police and Georgia
state troopers dismantled a camp on Emory University's quadrangle
Thursday morning, with Associated Press journalists counting at least 17
people detained.When officers in tactical gear began detaining people,
some submitted, but others physically pushed back.Those who were
detained were handcuffed with zip ties and loaded into a police
transport van. Video shows officers at least once used an electrical
stun gun on a protester who was handcuffed on the ground.Officers
deployed rubber bullets and tear gas to break apart pro-Palestinian
protests at Emory University in Atlanta. Protesters were seen struggling
against officers' attempts to wrestle them to the ground and multiple
people were detained by law enforcement.University police had ordered
several dozen demonstrators who set up tents on the campus early
Thursday morning to leave, according to Emory spokesperson Laura
Diamond.She said in an email to The Associated Press that the group
"trespassed" onto the private school."These individuals are not members
of our community," Diamond said. "They are activists attempting to
disrupt our university as our students finish classes and prepare for
finals."A person in a red t-shirt faces a crowd on a university campus
while holding up a protest sign reading "Emory Admin: Opposing Genocide
does not equal Antisemitism."A long line of officers surrounded the
encampment of about three dozen tents after 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, as
protesters chanted slogans supporting Palestinians and opposing a public
safety training centre being built in Atlanta.The two movements are
closely entwined in Atlanta, where there has been years of "Stop Cop
City" activism that has included a fringe of anarchist attacks on
property and the killing by state troopers of a protester who was
occupying the site.Police, protesters face off at University of
Texas-The University of Texas campus was much calmer on Thursday, a day
after a demonstration saw police and state troopers in riot gear and on
horseback make dozens of arrests and forced hundreds of students off the
school's main lawn.On Thursday, university officials pulled back the
campus barricades and allowed another demonstration on the main square
underneath the school's iconic clock tower in central campus.A crowd of
protesters on one side of a line of shrubs faces a crowd of police in
riot gear, as officers pull one demonstrator away.While the group was
vocal with chants and angry shouts against Israel and campus leadership,
the demonstration was far less volatile.No violence erupted as a small
group of campus police watched from the steps of the tower building.Gaza

officers at the University of Texas at Austin aggressively detained
dozens of protesters.Hundreds of local and state police — including some
on horseback and holding batons — bulldozed into protesters, at one
point sending some tumbling into the street.A line of protesters with
some holding cardboard signs.Officers pushed their way into the crowd
and made 34 arrests at the behest of the university and Texas Gov. Gregg
Abbott, according to the state Department of Public Safety.Dane
Urquhart, a third-year Texas student, called the police presence and
arrests an "overreaction," adding that the protest "would have stayed
peaceful" if the officers had not turned out in force. "Because of all
the arrests, I think a lot more [demonstrations] are going to happen,"
Urquhart said.In a statement Wednesday night, the university's
president, Jay Hartzell, said: "Our rules matter, and they will be
enforced. Our University will not be occupied."After days of unrest on
campus, U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson denounced pro-Palestinian
protesters camped out at Columbia University, accusing them of
antisemitism and calling on the school's president to restore order or
resign.USC cancels graduation event amid protests-The University of
Southern California cancelled its main stage graduation ceremony
Thursday as college officials across the U.S. worried that ongoing
campus protests against the Israel-Hamas war could disrupt May
commencement ceremonies.USC announced the cancellation of the May 10
ceremony a day after more than 90 protesters were arrested on campus
Wednesday night for trespassing, while one person was arrested for
alleged assault with a deadly weapon.The university says it will still
host dozens of commencement events, including all the traditional
individual school commencement ceremonies where students cross a stage
and receive their diplomas.Tensions were already high after the
university cancelled a planned commencement speech by the school's
pro-Palestinian valedictorian, citing safety concerns.A group of
security officers surround a man on the ground, with one officer on the

to bar tents on its suburban Chicago campus as anti-war student
activists set up an encampment similar to Pro-Palestinian demonstrations
at colleges nationwide.Groups including Jewish Voice for Peace and

actions including suspension, expulsion and criminal charges."The goal
of this addendum is to balance the right to peacefully demonstrate with
our goal to protect our community, to avoid disruptions to instruction
and to ensure university operations can continue unabated," Schilling
said.No arrests had been made by Thursday mid-afternoon.The swell of
anti-war protests and encampments on U.S. campuses has lead to multiple
arrests as police and institutions crack down fearing for student
safety.
