For serious institutions of higher learning, this protest crap gets old fast. Blue states may recognize this deviant behavior as a worthy cause but Red states are wiser and much less tolerant of insanity.
The University of Texas at Austin finally had enough with these people and University police issued a dispersal order after protesters tried to set up tents. Police—including the Texas DPS—moved in to try to clear the South Mall area.
This from redstate.com.
Consequences came for some of the radical leftist Gaza protesters on Monday at the University of Texas at Austin.
Authorities had moved in on them last week, but the protesters came back.
Warning: Leftists crying and cursing in the following videos.

They picked up and dragged out dozens of people and arrested at least 40 people. Protesters cower and scream as the police drag them out one by one.
They screamed “This is a peaceful protest” and “Let them go!” even as they tried to resist arrest and kicked at the police.

One of them screamed, “What the #$%^ is wrong with you?” Um, no, sir, it’s not the cops with the problems here. It’s you guys who have issues supporting this.
But this one was certainly something special. As the police dragged someone off, the person screamed, “They’re choking me with my scarves!!!”
Likely dozens arrested now, many of them carried out by hands and feet. Awaiting updated arrest count from UTPD. A Travis County jail bus was on scene presumably to transport the arrested en masse pic.twitter.com/dBfOhOLIHC

The police didn’t appear to be doing any such thing but points for drama. This is what should be done at Columbia and the other places that do not seem to be getting a handle on this. You hear someone calling for a “medic”; if she’s talking that clearly, she’s probably not choking.
The police had to deploy the pepper spray when the protesters tried to block the vans taking away the people who had been arrested.
So, if they were involved in that they were likely involved in trying to obstruct police.

Then there was this high drama where they treated this kid like he’d been blinded by a grenade as opposed to just feeling some pepper spray.

Seriously, they flip out over this, but they want people to think they’re tough?
All told, the protesters were given what they damn well deserved for their unpeaceful “peaceful protest” and they likely did not have an enjoyable end to their day.
