Negotiations between protesters and Columbia University officials regarding the clearing of the encampment on its lawn have been described as 'unstable.' The student organizers have extended the deadline by 48 hours, and as of now, they are halfway through this extension. According to reports, the negotiations are ongoing but remain in a precarious state.
With approximately 24 hours left until the extended deadline expires, the outcome remains uncertain. The situation has garnered attention from various quarters, with House Speaker Mike Johnson calling for the university president's resignation if she fails to restore order amidst the chaos.
Student reactions to the calls for the president's resignation have been varied. While some students support her continued leadership and willingness to collaborate, others are more critical of her handling of the situation.
