Portland police say that at least 30 people have been arrested over their involvement in ongoing protests at Portland State University.

"Additional arrests have been made at PSU’s library after trespassers illegally entered the building again despite efforts to secure it," police said in their statement. "Preliminary count is 30 arrests over the course of the day. Officers will continue to monitor for criminal activity and will make arrests when lawful and appropriate."

Authorities say that officers encountered acts of vandalism, and one suspect deployed a fire extinguisher at an officer during an altercation.

"Seven officers suffered injuries, the most serious was a knee injury that required ambulance transport to the hospital. Other injuries are still being assessed or were minor," Portland police said.

The identities of those arrested will be released once a full list has been completed.

USC has sent an email to the arrested protesters on Thursday evening warning that any student protesters who have been arrested for their "alleged conduct" of criminal trespassing on April 24 will be “referred to the University’s disciplinary process.”

"Please be aware that any further violation of university policies - including but not limited to the university's policies against camping, amplified sound, defying DPS directives, vandalism, harassments, bullying, and theft of property - will result in further discipline up to expulsion as well as an immediate ban from campus," the email obtained by ABC News said.

The Portland Police Bureau announced seven additional arrests were made Thursday evening amid ongoing protests at Portland State University.

The seven arrests came a couple of hours after PPB announced 22 people had been arrested on Thursday, bringing the total to 29 people arrested on Thursday.

PPB said the seven arrests were from "trespassers" breaking "back into the library" by pulling the fence down.

"Arrests have also been made for people refusing to leave the park block at the library," the bureau said in an update on X late Thursday evening.

The Portland Police Bureau said 22 arrests have been made amid the ongoing protests at Portland State University.

"PPB has arrested a total of 22 people during the events on the PSU campus," the bureau said in an update on X Thursday.

Earlier in the day, Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek released a statement condemning vandalism reported at the PSU Library.

“I fully condemn the criminal actions taken Thursday morning that resulted in the burning of 15 Portland Police Bureau cars, endangering first responders and the surrounding community," Kotek said, adding, "This includes the acts of vandalism seen this week at the Portland State University library and against nearby businesses."

Columbia University announced Monday it will not hold a campuswide commencement ceremony on May 15 as originally scheduled.

Columbia will focus on the smaller, school-based ceremonies instead based on "input and feedback from student leaders," the school said.

"Our students emphasized that these smaller-scale, school-based celebrations are most meaningful to them and their families," the school said in a statement. "They are eager to cross the stage to applause and family pride and hear from their school’s invited guest speakers."

The smaller school ceremonies will begin on Friday. Columbia said it may hold "a festive event" on May 15 instead. Security concerns were among the reasons the larger ceremony was canceled.

One of the reasons Columbia said it had called in the New York Police Department last Tuesday was in order to make room for the schoolwide ceremony in the same location as the encampment.
