Pro-Palestinian students have peacefully evacuated prestigious Paris university campus building

PARIS (AP) — Students in Paris inspired by Gaza solidarity encampments at campuses in the United States have peacefully evacuated a campus building at a prestigious French university after days of tensions. The head of the Paris Institute of Political Studies, known as Sciences Po, said an agreement was found Friday with students. Sciences Po counts President Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister Gabriel Attal among its many famous alumni. In an email to students, Sciences Po administrator Jean Bassères pledged to hold a townhall meeting in the coming week and to suspend some disciplinary proceedings against students. In return, students “committed to no longer disrupting courses, examinations and all other activities of the institution.”
