Organizers of the pro palestinian campment at the university of toronto are expected to respond today to a conditionaffer put forward by the school on thursday the encampment has occupied kings college circle for three weeks now. That's where we find jaden e-lincoln with the latest. >> Reporter: good morning, candace. Things could come to a head soon after the university's latest statement that was issued just yester giving students and those involved in the pro palestinian encampment 24 hours to consider clearing out. You mentioned three weeks of in person negotiations, e-mails, but both sides still coming to a emate. Just yesterday in that statement issued by the president, he said, in part, that they have been patient while this shared space has been taken over, but the principles of inclusion have been olated. They listed what they are willing to do for students. They said they issued a public statement on their commitment toacademic freedom and human rights. And they said they would begin talks of divestment and disclosure requests and apoint a review committee on where the university can but they stopped short of coming out fully with a full divestment and and they made clear in the statement they will not terminate any partnerships with israeli they have rejected the notion of cutting ties with international partner institutions. So not quite the deal pro palestinian protesters here are looking for. And students have made it clear that they won't be moving until their demands are met. Here is m from both sides. >> Many members of the community feel increasing distress by the presence of the encampment. They feel safe. Any have reported feelings of - and experience of discrimination and harassment. We have also had reports of hateful speech and hateful acts, which we have reported promptly to toronto police service. >>ile the protesters are appalled by the offer the university made, it's a disgrace of an offer. The administration claims they want the encampment to come to a aceful conclusion, but they attempt to blind side us a every turn. >> Reporter: it seems both sides are standing firm where they are. Keep in mind, graduatio is coming up in about 10 days or so. And the university will want to use king's college circle for some of the ceremonies. So they likely could issue a notice in the coming days to police as well. You know, we know that police are involved or they have been monitoring the situation. Mostly it has within secur here, but police have said, in the past, that they are willing to get involved at the university's request. We'l hearing from organizers of the pro palestinian encampment at 11 A.M. today. Again, we'll see w things stand. Looks like we're coming a head here at the u of t campus.
