Members of the DePaul community gathered on the Lincoln Park Quad for an encampment to encourage university administration to divest from Israel on Tuesday. The protest began at 10 a.m. and grew to about 200 students, faculty and other university stakeholders. Many demonstrators, most wishing to remain anonymous, will stay the night and continue the encampment until the DePaul Divestment Coalition’s demands are met.
