At least six of the Columbia students arrested for storming a Columbia University library on Wednesday are repeat offenders, including one student who demanded humanitarian aid from university, a Washington Free Beacon review found. They had already been arrested and disciplined for their involvement in earlier campus building raids or in last spring's encampments. Of the 81 total arrests, at least 44 are Columbia students, while at least 13 attend the university’s sister school, Barnard College.
