HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
Between 400 and 500 University of Michigan students, shouting "We want good food," rioted in their dormitory dining halls yesterday.
The demonstrators heaved plates of asparagus and vanilla pudding at each other and the walls until police closed food lines and cleared the dining halls. Outside, the rioters rocked cars and threw snowballs at the police.
