Barnard College’s library was evacuated as police responded to a fake bomb threat during a sit-in staged by protesters. Student organizers say they launched the protest in response to the expulsions of student activists and other recent actions taken by school officials.

Pro-Palestinian protesters held a sit-in Wednesday to demand the school reverse the expulsion of three protesters.

A bomb threat was reported at Barnard College following the takeover of the college's Milstein Center building by pro-Palestinian protesters.
