On Friday, professors, town residents and students gathered beneath a canopy of tall, leafy trees and amid pops of bright orange and blue camping gear as protest leaders made announcements on bullhorns. “It feels exhilarating and inspiring,” Slyvie Tudor, a graduate student with UNC Students for Justice in Palestine, told USA TODAY. “It has to start somewhere, and I think it’s really meaningful that we’re at a public university in the South,” Tudor said, referencing how North Carolina’s Republican-controlled state legislature makes decisions impacting the university.

NiEtta Reynolds, another student of Hornbuckle’s, hopes to use her photography to stimulate conversations around mental health. “Being in the class is actually giving me…visual representation… It’s putting me in a position for people to ask me about my work,” she says. In response to message from state Sen. Sarah Eckhardt, D-Austin, asking about the heavy law enforcement presence at the University of Texas at Austin, Hartzell said, “We asked for help, Senator.

Campus police attempted to break up the encampment and arrested one person Friday, according to student media.

The Arts Month events are, to Jackson, a way the school advocates for students while helping them get their work in front of key stakeholders. “I think…art is a really important part of our community and our wellbeing overall… Research shows that…[whether] you’re a consumer of art or you’re an artist, there’s the opportunity to have a positive impact,” she says. “The DIA celebrates artmaking, both past and present,” said Judith Dolkart, Deputy Director, Art, Education & Programs at the DIA. “We are thrilled to see the creativity and virtuosity that the CCS fashion students have brought to the magnificent garments inspired by the museum’s collections.
