There will be another protest on campus at UW-Madison today. UW faculty members and staffers say they plan to rally in support of the pro-Palestinian protesters who’ve been on campus now for a week. Professor Keith Woodward says they want to listen to their students and hear their ideas. The faculty rally will be at the Library Mall, which is the center of the current protests. Faculty members say they plan to meet with students in the tent village on campus, and share their thoughts.
This as UW’s president says campus protest tent communities will ‘ultimately be gone.’ President Jay Rothman was on Milwaukee TV over the weekend, and he said the university will not allow protesters in Madison and Milwaukee to continue to camp-out on campus. But Rothman did not say how, or when the university will deal with the protesters and the tents.
