The Columbus metro area is home to a large Jewish population and thousands of Palestinians, so the tensions are very much felt among the communities.
The protest is expected to begin in the evening hours at the South Oval, where dozens were arrested last week after setting up an encampment.
University spokesperson Ben Johnson said 16 students were among 36 people arrested and charged with criminal trespass. The other 20 people were not affiliated with the university. "This proactive measure is intended to allow university employees to continue their work and best maintain safety on campus. Individuals with meetings in a locked building should follow the directions posted on the door," Johnson said.
