“Some on campus said they were stunned it took so long before officials stepped in to stop the clashes.

Ananya Roy, a professor of urban planning, social welfare and geography, condemned UCLA’s lack of response to the counterprotesters.

“It gives people impunity to come to our campus as a rampaging mob,” she said early Wednesday. “The word is out they can do this repeatedly and get away with it. I am ashamed of my university.””
