    Pure speculation, but I could also easily see it just being kids from other nearby schools that heard about a protest at Columbia and rode the subway up from NYU, or CUNY, or any number of schools in the area. Technically outsiders at that point, but I wouldn’t really consider them as such.

      Thing is outsiders are much more likely to stir things up than local students - at least in my experience. This applies to parties and other events as well, not just protests.
