Pro-Palestinian protesters occupied the office of Stanford University’s president, Marc Tessier-Lavigne, on Wednesday morning, demanding action against what they describe as the university’s complicity in genocide in Gaza. The occupation led to 13 arrests as police intervened to remove the demonstrators. A Stanford public safety officer was injured during the incident. The protest is part of a broader wave of campus tensions related to the Israel-Hamas conflict.
