Monday was quiet at Cal Poly Humboldt — but protesters continue to defy the university’s attempts at closing campus and sweeping out protesters. Siemens Hall is barricaded after briefly opening, Nelson Hall is still propped open and encampments are still up.” is in effect for the campus amid a now weeklong anti-war protest. While the campus has been closed by the University since last Monday, the hard closure means “individuals are prohibited from entering or being on campus without permission.
A vandalized bench at the center of the protest activity. The bench has a memorial for two then Humboldt State professors. A son of the couple said the vandalism, is antisemitic. Names of people who have been killed in the war have been written in chalk and on papers around the quad. On Monday, the ACLU’s northern California director visited campus. People used benches, patio furniture, planters and other objects to barricade entrances. Dozens are still occupying the building.
The University’s communication department said in a Sunday release that “since Monday, the University’s goal has always been to bring a peaceful end to the occupation. The University continues to talk to anyone willing to have productive and respectful dialogue.” Humboldt alumni Lissie Rydz, who had set up a tent between police barriers and protesters’ barriers, said Monday the connected nature of Humboldt has influenced the energy of the protests — there’s many entrances to the campus and she said community members have been stopping by to drop off food and supplies.
