Police dismantled a pro- Palestinian tent encampment at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology early Friday and moved to clear protesters from University of Pennsylvania’s campus in Philadelphia, hours after police tear-gassed protesters and took down an encampment at the University of Arizona.
The protest movement began nearly three weeks ago at Columbia University in New York City.
