Harvard Yard was shut to the public. Nearby, at campuses including Tufts and Emerson, administrators weighed how to handle encampments that looked much like the one that police dismantled at Columbia last week — which protesters quickly resurrected.
哈佛校園對大眾關閉。附近，在包括塔夫茲大學跟愛默生學院校園，行政人員斟酌如何處理抗議者營地，營地跟警察上周在哥倫比亞大學拆除而抗議者很快重搭的很像。
Less than a week after the arrests of more than 100 protesters at Columbia, administrators at some of the country's most influential universities were struggling, and largely failing, to calm campuses torn by the conflict in the Gaza Strip and Israel.

During the turmoil Monday, which coincided with the start of Passover, protesters called on their universities to become less financially tied to Israel and its arms suppliers.

Alumni and donors raged.

And from Congress, there were calls for the resignation of Columbia's president from some of the same lawmakers Nemat Shafik tried to pacify last week with words and tactics that inflamed her own campus.
國會則有人要求哥倫比亞大學校長沙菲克辭職，發聲者包括一些她上周力圖安撫的議員，而她當時一些言論和策略激怒自己的校園。
It is all but certain that the demonstrations, in some form or another, will last on some campuses until the end of the academic year, and even then, graduation ceremonies may be bitterly contested gatherings.

For now, with the most significant protests confined to a handful of campuses, administrators' approaches sometimes seem to shift from hour to hour.
眼下，因為最嚴重的抗議局限於少數校園，行政人員的做法似乎一直在轉變。
Protesters have demonstrated with varying intensity since the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel. But this round of unrest began to gather greater force last Wednesday, after Columbia students erected an encampment, just as Shafik was preparing to testify before Congress.
去年10月7日哈瑪斯襲擊以色列以來，抗議者已經用不同的強度示威。但這一輪的騷動上周三開始加強，正當沙菲克在準備出席國會作證，哥倫比亞學生搭建了營地之後。
At that hearing in Washington, before a Republican-led House committee, she vowed to punish unauthorized protests on the private university's campus more aggressively, and the next day, she asked the New York Police Department to clear the encampment. In addition to the more than 100 people arrested, Columbia suspended many students. Many Columbia professors, students and alumni voiced fears that the university was stamping out free debate.
