New York police began moving into Columbia University in large numbers Tuesday night as a large number of pro-Palestinian protesters were on campus. According to the Associated Press, Palestinian protesters were at the school. The NYPD reportedly entered the campus after receiving a tip from Columbia University granting them permission. Police arrived at Hamilton Hall, the student administration building. Students protested Israel's military operations in Gaza. They also demanded that schools divest from companies they say profit from conflict.

Columbia University also confirmed that it called the police before entering campus. "A little after 21:00 this evening, the New York Police Department arrived at the school at the school's request. According to the Guardian, a school spokesperson said in a letter that this decision was taken to restore security and order at our school.

The school closed Hamilton Hall one night. After learning that it had been occupied, harassed, and barricaded, Columbia Public Safety employees were forced to leave the building and a member of our community was threatened that we would no longer be safe in our community or nature. We determined this morning that this is a legal issue and that the NYPD is in the best position to make a decision and implement the appropriate response.

An expert reiterated that the group of those "killed in and in the building" was led by people "not affiliated with the school." "The decision to call the NYPD was a response to the actions of protesters, not an act of support. We made clear that school life could not be disrupted indefinitely from protesters who violated the law and ordinances."
