Sciences Po Lifts Ban on Students

Published: 2024-10-31

Four students from Sciences Po Paris, previously banned from campus for participating in a pro-Palestinian protest, will be allowed to return on Monday.

The decision was announced by the new director, Luis Vassy, after a meeting with the students.

The ban was initially imposed following an incident at a career forum where the students were accused of damaging property and chanting slogans against certain companies.

Despite the lifting of the ban, a disciplinary hearing is still pending.

The students had challenged the ban in court, but their appeals were dismissed.

The director emphasized the importance of moving forward and maintaining order within the institution.
