Student protests get different treatment in different universities across US

Students at Texas State University in San Antonio and campuses nationwide protest the Israeli operation in Gaza, sparking debate over free speech versus hate speech. At the University of Texas at Austin, police dispersed a protest, arresting 43 individuals. Some students, including Jewish peace activists, criticize the labeling of criticism against Israel as antisemitic. Meanwhile, at the University of California, Los Angeles, tensions rose as pro-Israeli activists countered pro-Hamas chants with a video loop of a Hamas attack. UCLA increased security around a pro-Palestinian encampment near the main administration building. In the face of the protests sweeping through US campuses, the White House issued a statement on Monday.
