The University of Arizona closed portions of its mall Tuesday, posting "no trespassing" signs, after pro-Palestinian protesters set up what they called an encampment there the day before. That led the protest group to move Tuesday to a site near UA's main gate and next to Arizona State Museum, where they brought in tents and their own fencing and said they planned to spend the night, risking arrest for defying university policies.
