I thought Wolf had entered the portal before the protests began, but maybe this is erroneous.

There are similar protests occurring at U Michigan.

In response to Ghost, "free speech" involves a public gathering of informed folks to discuss certain issues. It is peaceful, does not include impeding the movements of fellow students, and it is limited to the time to needed to complete the discussions.

An encampment is an act of civil disobedience and is not "speech". In Yale's case, the encampment on Beinecke Plaza impedes other students, denies access to the primary student center, the Scharzman Center, and desecrates the memorial to Yale's fallen military veterans.

The occupiers of the encampment should have been given short notice (a few hours) and then arrested.

I believe that's what happened. Their encampment violated University space and therefore they were either removed or arrested. Handled correctly.
