As pro-Palestinian protests spread, more university leaders weigh police involvement
Briefly

For the second time in a week, police arrested dozens of demonstrators at the University of Texas at Austin protesting Israel's war against Hamas. Protesters chanted for the police to leave, repeating: 'We are being peaceful, you are being violent.' The scene at UT-Austin grew tense as campus police and state troopers deployed a chemical irritant to control the crowd.
At Emory University in Atlanta, police used pepper balls and tasers to control what they described as unruly protesters throwing bottles. Nationwide, there have been hundreds of arrests, including at Columbia University, the University of Southern California, and at Virginia Commonwealth University.
