Did Presidents Honor Campus Protest Deals?
Briefly

In the wake of pro-Palestinian protests last spring, many college presidents made commitments to students, with many initiatives now progressing. While divestment from Israel was a major demand, universities mostly rejected these requests. However, some institutions, like Northwestern University, made notable agreements involving scholarships for displaced Palestinian students and enhancing support for Muslim groups. President Michael Schill of Northwestern was particularly highlighted for his active engagement with protesters and subsequent congressional scrutiny, reflecting broader administrative accountability in the wake of student activism.
At Northwestern University, President Michael Schill's Dearing Meadow agreement outlined support for Palestinian students and more resources for Muslim student groups.
Despite varied responses, the majority of college presidents who agreed to protests have largely honored commitments made, albeit with some initiatives still in progress.
