around the us. but it doesn't have to be this way. on the other side of the united states at the university of california, irvine, the much different see we have a police presence actually, but it's not as though it hasn't been aggressive or agitating. it does definitely, it shouldn't give other university as an example of how to treat this and not to be aggressive with your own students and professors, faculty and staff, which we have seen. they have been very aggressive with some professors as well. several dozen protesters at bennett this encampment for over a week. now it's calm and peaceful. and the university administrators and protests leaders are engaged in dialogue. was been unique about like, um, our situation here is that we started meeting with the negotiators almost like since day one. and a 1st, obviously they were opposed to what our demands were and we restrict that our demands. we're not going to fulton our demands. and so we, we did a counter them like demand back and we said we send it to them. and now it's on the
7:06 am
table which is um, which is actually like big they're considering arguments and we're still waiting to hear. here you see irvine, they say they'll keep this in cameron up until their demands are met. and it appears that that pressure is working because at another university you see riverside about an hour away from here, protesters, they're actually reach an agreement with the university university agreed to all 5 of the protesters demands, including considering divesting, for many companies that deal with israel. the encampment at u. c. riverside was then voluntarily taken down in celebration protesters. here you see irvine are hoping for the same gabriel's onto which is either irvine, california or the
