A final demonstration is planned for this afternoon.
The students’ union hopes to convince the school’s board of regents to approve a tuition rebate when it meets next month.
Students say they’ve missed nearly a quarter of their semester and the rebate is only fair.
More than 600 students have also signed an online petition, vowing to withhold future donations to the university unless they’re reimbursed.
