They are holding black and white photographs, including a large photograph on a stand of Mahmoud Khalil. Behind them is Columbia's iconic Low Library. Arching above their heads, seen in reverse, are mylar balloons that spell out REUNION

Today we held another of our #CampusVigils for students targeted by ICE, including Mahmoud Khalil who has spent 83 days in unjust and unlawful detention for his political speech. It happens to be alumni weekend here and the balloons over our heads took on a new meaning. #handsoff
Simultaneous vigils were held at schools across the country, including UCLA… #CampusVigils #HandsOff #RiseUpHigherEd
