Brand new roc and a new central starts now more violent clashes on College Campuses across the country over israels war against hamas in gaza propalestinian protesters now being met by pro israeli counter protests. The Secretary Of State and the extraordinarily generous proposal he says israel has offered hamas is concern grows inside the State Department over how israel is using american weapons in its war against hamas. And from namecalling campaign rivals to new friends and allies trump and ron desantis meeting for the First Time Since desantis dropped out of the public, can primary what Team Trump Says they need from the Florida Governor now im balden my john berman, sarah is out today. This is Cnn News Central major developments are new developments. I should say in the propalestinian protests on campuses across the country this morning, 21 House Democrats just wrote a letter to Columbia Universitys board asking them to act decisively to end the encampment or resigned the moments ago, columbia said it regretfully, could not come to an agreement with the propalestinian protesters. And is asking them to voluntarily pack up their tents and go university is also vowing to hold commencement, even as the protests, there are right on the site of where the Commencement Ceremonies are set to take place. Other developments around the country, ucla, there were clashes between police and protesters and cabinets at George Washington university 20. New tents few new tens here and theyre spreading a little bit onto the streets in washington. And at yale, students have just begun pitching tents despite the threat of suspension or arrest. We are covering this across the country. Cnns omar jimenez, is that Columbia UniversityDanny Freeman at the university of pennsylvania, gabe cohen at George Washington university, omar or less, begin with you. What are you seeing so weve got a lot of news over the past hour for starters, as you touched on a little bit, theyre the university has effectively ended its negotiations with the Student Protesters with the University President saying they were not able to come to an agreement. Now is part of that statement. They said that since last week they had been engaging in constructive dialogue between some members of the Academic Community and students. And that they wished the outcome here was different so what that means is the university is now saying they will not divest from israel, which of course was the Central Point of why these and cabinet led protests began, though they did say that the wood that they offered an expedited timeline for review of new proposals before the body that essentially considers divestment opportunities. The University Also said that they will make investments in health care and education in gaza. And also they said, while they have worked hard to facilitate opportunities for constructive dialogue and protests the encampment, and some of the ensuing protests in and around the campus have created an environment that has not been welcome. For jewish students. Now, all of that set, the campus or the university is urging these protesters to voluntarily disband the encampment as they explore internal options to do that, essentially for them or to put quote, the crisis to end the crisis as soon as possible was falls in line with the 21 House Democrats who recently wrote a letter urging the university to do essentially the same to end this encampment now, graduation is essentially a little bit more than two weeks takes away and the University Made it clear that the graduating class began their career here remote. And that is part of why they will hold a commencement here. As weve already seen, signs on campus of that being able to develop. But obviously, a lot of news here and a lot of definitive points being made by the university after over week negotiation. All right, thats the situation at columbia. Lets get to George Washington university, gabe cohen is there. Gave what do you see well, John Tensions hit a new high this morning when protesters ripped out some of the barricades that had been around this camp here on the campus. If you take a look over there, you can actually see the barracks kates now piled up with a flag posted on top of it and what was just about 20 people left in this small camp has rapidly grown. You can see the tense now all across the yard thats gw campus, also a whole lot of tents out there on the street. Of course, that is property of the district of columbia. The question is, is it going to be cleared out by men . Metropolitan police who up to this point, sources have told me really havent wanted the optics of having to clear out and potentially arrest protesters, but having spoken with several of the people who are still here in the camp, theyve said theyre not going anywhere, despite what the school and what police have told them. So well see again as those tension dries, what happened this morning. John has all of this is unfolding very quickly. All right. Thats George Washington university, not far from foggy bottom of the State Department in washington. Lets go to the university of pennsylvania, Danny Freeman standing by the 10th still behind you, daniel, what hes saying . Well, john werent a fiveyear of the encampment on the university of pennsylvanias campus and everything so far has been peaceful pretty much since the start of the protests back on thursday. But the university of pennsylvania, they less than 24 hours after the encampment sprung up, they said, we want this to be disbanded now, what . Justin things about this particular encampment, john, is that there are members from a couple of different campuses here. There are students from Temple Drexel and the university of pennsylvania. And this is becoming a focal points as the university and a protesters negotiate on taking potentially this encampment down. The university wants to see ids of the students the folks who are in the second behind me, to ensure that those who remain here are indeed penn students. So thats a little bit of what were going on. Whats going on behind me right now. You can see this its in kanban though, has very much grown. It used to be just about ten, maybe a dozen tents when it first came up on thursday. Now, very much grown almost probably 30 or so here according to some of the protesters. Now, ill just remind you, john, the university of pennsylvania, initially said that they supported the right of these students to public protest peacefully. Next is their free speech. But very, very shortly thereafter, the university then came out and said that these protesters were blatantly violating university policies. They also said that they had credible reports of harassing and intimidating conduct. Thats why the University Says that it is calling for this encampment to be disbanded. But we talked to some students earlier. They say theyre not going anywhere until like you heard the other border say they get a Divestment Disclosure of some of these investments at the university is making. So they say theyre in it for the long haul. John, right . Danny freeman and philadelphia. Thanks to you also, thanks to omar jimenez and gabe cohen as well. Appreciate as jonathan, i can clear right there it was a weekend of protest of course. And this weekend it turned violent at ucla propalestinian and pro israeli demonstrators clashing after people breached a security barrier. University officials are also facing mounting questions this morning about how theyll handle the situation Going Forward joining me right now is dan gold. Hes the Executive Director of hillel at ucla. Hello. Well, of course, is that largest jewish Campus Organization in the world, dan, thank you for jumping on. I believe you are at those campus. At the campus protests this yesterday, speaking from the Pro Israel Stage that was set up as part of the counterprotest. How do you describe what you what you saw . Well out there and what you see yeah. Thanks for having me, kate. So i was there yesterday. The demonstration while it was a powerful display of our jewish community, showing support for the jewish students. It also highlighted how the universitys approach to look away and let everything play out its really a lack of leadership because its a tinderbox thats ready to explode. And yesterday included hundreds of nonstudents, especially nonstudents, who came onto campus to try to physically protect the encampment in the longer this goes unchecked and is protected by the university, the more chaotic and out of control, i believe it will get dan. I did want to ask you because i did see some reporting that Student Leaders of the propalestinian protests, they say they have acknowledged some incidents of antisemitism, but they are blaming those outsiders. You might be mentioning that they say have sought to come in and hijack there pause. What have you what have you seen and what have what our parents, people experiencing in terms of this yes. So im sure that parts of that is true, but we still have signage hanging on the encampment. We still have verbal abuse coming from the encampment for anybody that might walk by, whether it was hijacked by outsiders are frankly, maybe it was set up an organized by outsiders that we dont know, but these are the same students that just several weeks ago put together a seven foot tall pig, esha, holding a bag of money over and israeli flag at the Uc Regents Meeting and posted gladly about it on social media. So we know that there are Student Organizers who have spewed antisemitism on our campus for months, really since october 7 and before and so it continues in this encampment and the signage is still up. Its not coming down and its there for everybody to see one thing we have seen with all of these campus all of these protests across the country is differing responses by the Schools Administrations. You talked about. You can describe it as a looking away strategy and a lack like of leadership. I want to read for everyone a couple of the statements coming from the Schools Administration on friday, the school said, you say lazy approach to the encampment is guided by several equally important principles. The need to support the safety and wellbeing of bruins, the need to support the Free Expression of a Free Expression rights of our Community Kennedy and the need to minimize disruption to our teaching and learning mission. And then yesterday, after things escalated, they put out another statement in part saying ucla has a long history of peaceful protests, and we are heartbroken to report that today some physical altercations broke out among demonstrators what what in your view do you think the school is getting wrong . You call it a lack of leadership whats going on here yeah. Well, you heard from your other correspondence and other campuses, these encampment violated a long list of policies that the university has set up. Specifically to create a safe and welcoming environment for all students. And to promote equality and equity for student groups these are there policies that theyre now not enforcement and they know that the policies are being violated . Yes, theyre trying to negotiate a peaceful and easy disbursement of the encampments. But we know that the students arent gonna do it easily. We know that they dont want to go away and the University Needs to do what they can to enforce their own policy usc canceled its main stage Graduation Ceremony because of the protests and the security that theyve needed to put in place. I took a look. I think ucla, his graduation is an early june. I mean, do you think ucla should or needs to follow suit . I mean, what what would your reaction be . If that became a reality and ucla started canceling events around graduation because of these protests yes. So once again, i believe one of your correspondence mentioned it, but these are the same College Seniors that had their High School Graduation canceled because of covid. So what a shame for the students to not be able to have their College Graduation because of a group of students and outside agitators want to intimidate the rest of their campus where ucla, we have 30,000 undergraduates several thousand of those will be graduating in june. And only a couple of dozen of them are coming to the campus to try to shut things down and how terrible would that be for everybody else to have to suffer, not have a graduation because of that dan gold. Thank you for coming and well continue to follow all of this and see what the administration what they decided to do, especially as classes start backup, its good to see you. Thank you very much. Coming up still for us. Tony blinken says, israel has presented hamas with an extraordinarily generous Ceasefire Proposal. So what is in this proposal.
