Los Angeles, April 28 (RHC)-- Student activists at Occidental College in Los Angeles ended their hunger strike over the weekend after the school’s administrators called in LAPD and campus security to violently crack down on peaceful protesters outside the inauguration of Occidental President Tom Stritikus. 

Students had been demanding Occidental protect its students from immigration authorities and renounce any ties to Israel’s war on Gaza. 

The hunger strikers say Occidental has agreed to certain measures supporting immigrant and international students.
