Description:
Columbia University President Minouche Shafik said talks with student organizers of encampment protests have failed to reach an agreement. The university will not divest investments from Israel, a key demand of protesters at Columbia and other campuses. Columbia did offer to expedite a review process of new divestment proposals and publish its direct investment holdings. It also offered investments in health and education programs in Gaza as negotiations resulted in a stalemate. The protests at Columbia are in their second week and risk disrupting its May 15 commencement ceremonies.

The expansion is backed by over $800 million in state incentives from Illinois' REV program over 30 years if targets are met. Rivian received over 68,000 pre-orders for the R2 in its first 24 hours on sale online. Producing the R2 in Normal will expedite its launch and save over $2 billion versus building a new plant in Georgia. The R2 is expected to start production in 2026 at the expanded 4 million sqft Normal factory alongside the R1 vehicles.")
