Some classes were moved at the Rhode Island School of Design on Tuesday due to dozens of protesters occupying one of the buildings on campus, the school’s administration told NBC 10 News.

NBC 10's Temi-Tope Adeleye reports that students occupying the administration building say they'll stay put until their demands are met.

About 23 students took over parts of the second floor of the Washington Place Building on Monday.

They were told to leave by 8 a.m. Tuesday, but the deadline came and went with no movement, and RISD took no visible action.
