Dartmouth College President Sian Leah Beilock swiftly authorized police action to clear a student encampment, resulting in arrests that included a professor and student journalists. This move stirred campus uproar, with some supporting her concern for safety and others criticizing the use of force against nonviolent protesters. The incidents have sparked division among faculty and students, leading to a no-confidence vote against Beilock. While the charges against the student journalists were dropped, the situation has intensified the pro-Palestinian activism on campus. The board has expressed unequivocal support for Beilock, but the fallout from these events continues to unfold.
