We're pausing our live coverage of what has been another tumultuous day across several US college campuses.
Let's take a quick look at what happened:
Protesters at Columbia University in New York were given a 14:00 EST (1800 BST) deadline to clear their encampment
When that passed, the school began suspending students
Student leaders at Columbia, however, have remained defiant and vowed to remain in place
The school's president, Dr Minouche Shafik, is facing growing calls to step down over her handling of the protests
At the University of Texas - Austin, police equipped with riot gear moved to clear the encampment and began to make arrests
Police have not said how many people were taken into custody
Other arrests were reportedly made at the University of Georgia, bringing the total to hundreds over the last several days across the US.
