More than 2,000 protesters have been arrested on campuses across the country following the spread of pro-Palestinian and pro-ceasefire protests. Historically, American universities have been sites of major movements for social change, spanning from the anti-McCarthy demonstrations of the 50s to the more recent Black Lives Matter movement. Despite this legacy, education administrators past and present have struggled to find effective responses, oftentimes resorting to heavy-handed tactics.
