Here is a better solution to dealing with protestors

Brown University has reached a deal with the group that launched a pro-Palestinian encampment last week, Brown Divest Coalition.

In exchange for students clearing the encampment by 5 p.m. Tuesday and promising not to engage in unauthorized protests through the rest of the semester, administrators have agreed to bring a divestment proposal to a vote at the Brown Corporation Board’s October meeting. The vote will be based on a previous recommendation a now-disbanded advisory body made to the university’s president in 2020.

As a part of the agreement, the university agreed not to expel or suspend students or faculty members, based on what the University knows about their participation at this time.

That section of the agreement reads, “No member of the Brown community—including faculty, staff, graduate students, undergraduate students, or alumni—found to have been involved in the encampment or related activity will face retaliation from the University, including termination of employment or reduction in compensation.”
