The clashes occurred on Royce Quad late Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning, with the Chancellor describing the situation as instigators forcefully attacking an encampment advocating for Palestinian rights.
The Chancellor expressed deep concern over the clash, which prompted the university to seek assistance from external law enforcement agencies. He condemned the attack on students, faculty, and community members, emphasizing that such violence was unacceptable and had deeply shaken the campus community.
