Students at California State University, Northridge (CSUN) organized a pro-Palestinian protest on the university library lawn. The demonstration, led by Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), demanded changes to institutional investment policies to ensure ethical guidelines. 

Protesters called for the university to avoid supporting industries linked to war, policing, and surveillance. Specific demands included systemic changes to investment processes, severing ties with OpenAI due to concerns over artificial intelligence in surveillance and immigration enforcement, and addressing university funds managed through Goldman Sachs. Additionally, demonstrators urged California Senators to oppose H.R. 4795, citing potential impacts on federal university funding.
