The encampment shows no signs of ending anytime soon, despite Penn's interim president's Friday night order to disband 'immediately.'
The school said those gathered at the site were defying an order, but as of Saturday evening, no attempt was made to move them out.
Among the pro-Palestinian protesters was student organizer Eliana Atienza, 19, who had spent the previous night at the site, when temperatures dropped into the 40s. “This was hateful language spray-painted on our much-beloved statue,” said Abella. He added that he was at the encampment Friday and witnessed Jewish students being verbally abused.
The group wrote that Jameson and other university leaders had executed an “about face” and ignored due process.
