Last night, Yale students assembled to protest at Beinecke Plaza once again, this time bent out of shape that Itamar Ben-Gvir was scheduled to speak with students.
At least eight protesters pitched tents, hoping to relaunch the encampment.
Yalies4Palestine and others encouraged students to join in the action at Beinecke Plaza, as the news spread quickly on social media.
But not all students, though, as Jewish students were harassed and prevented from walking through campus by the protestors.
Eventually the University handed out a notice to the protesters to let them know they were violating Yale's policies, and telling them to stop the current action immediately or risk disciplinary action and/or arrest.
The protest broke up after less than four hours.

Yalies4Palestine took credit for the action, saying it was "unacceptable" to bring "Itamar Ben-Gvir, a core architect of the genocide in Gaza" to the University to speak.
The group also promised to "escalate for Gaza until liberation is won."
Yale withdrew Yalies4Palestine club status today after it was implicated in the action.
“This occurred only one day after Yalies4Palestine had met with Yale College officials to discuss recent policy violations and were warned that further violations would jeopardize the group’s privileges,” the University wrote in a statement. “Because Yalies4Palestine has flagrantly violated the rules to which the Yale College Dean’s Office holds all registered student organizations, Yale College today notified Yalies4Palestine that the College is withdrawing its status as a registered student organization.”
Without official club status, the group will no longer be able to reserve spaces at Yale, request funding or storage, participate in the student activities bazaar, use the Yale name, use the theater, website or other University privileges.
Yale also said that the "disturbing" antisemitic behavior will be investigated, and that students who had received previous "warnings" could be subject to “immediate” disciplinary action as a result of their conduct last night.
