NEW YORK (AP) — #ColumbiaUniversity has suspended dozens of students and barred alums and others who participated in a pro-#Palestinian demonstration inside the school’s main library earlier this week, a school spokesperson said Friday.

The Ivy League institution in Manhattan placed more than 65 students on interim suspension and barred 33 others, including those from affiliated institutions such as Barnard College, from setting foot on campus.
