> Prosecutors dropped all charges against five Stanford students tied to a June 2024 occupation of the university president’s office protesting Israel’s war on Gaza. Under an agreement with California’s attorney general, they will complete 100 hours of community service and pay about $50,000 in restitution, sharply below the amounts initially threatened.
