Tulane University has confirmed that protesters have been removed from its campus in a statement released on Wednesday. The university stated that students participating in the 'illegal encampment' were given multiple warnings before officers from the New Orleans Police Department and Louisiana State Police intervened.
The university emphasized that the majority of the protestors were not affiliated with the Tulane community. Police arrested at least 14 protesters, including two Tulane students. Earlier in the week, six individuals were arrested, with one student facing charges of trespassing, resisting arrest, and battery on an officer.
