The student leaders did not categorically reject the university’s offer, made with a 24-hour deadline Thursday afternoon, but declined to say whether they intend to stay beyond 4 p.m.

A pro-Palestinian encampment set up at the University of Toronto is photographed in Toronto, on May 23, 2024. The university gave organizers of the protest a 24-hour deadline on Thursday to accept a proposal to end the encampment.Organizers of the pro-Palestinian encampment at the University of Toronto called the university’s offer to end the protest a farce and accused it of negotiating in bad faith as a 4 p.m. Friday deadline to accept a deal approached.

In exchange for those concessions, the students would have to agree to end the encampment immediately, not to resume it on any U of T campus and commit to not disrupting convocation ceremonies. Dr. Gertler said Thursday that the administration had been patient in seeking a negotiated solution. But the protesters have occupied part of campus for weeks and some members of the community are distressed by the encampment.
