The University of Minnesota has reached an “initial agreement” to end a pro-Palestine student encampment that is demanding the U to divest from Israel.

The University of Minnesota agreed late Wednesday night to consider student protesters’ demands calling for the university to divest from Israel.

Student organizers said that in light of the development, they plan to take down their encampment on the campus’ Northrup Mall by noon Thursday. A coalition of student groups set up camp for nearly 10 days. University police arrested nine people last week after they refused to leave an earlier iteration of the encampment.

    So far, that’s still kinda weak as a result. I hope the students get the divestment they hope for.
