Pro-Palestine protesters begin marching down St. Charles Avenue on Sep. 18, 2024. This rally and march was to continue to call for university disclosure of funds.
Loyola’s chapter of Students for a Democratic Society, along with other students and community members, marched to the residence of university president Xavier Cole.
The rally, held on Sep. 18, began on St. Charles at the front of Loyola’s campus. After 30 minutes of chanting, around two dozen protesters walked through the streets of uptown New Orleans until they reached Cole’s home. This protest was held as students continue to put pressure on Loyola administration to disclose their investments and subsequently divest from companies that hold ties to Israel. Shortly after Cole left his residence by car, protesters walked back to campus before peacefully disbanding.
