TL;DR

A New York judge dismissed trespassing charges against 30 pro-Palestinian protesters arrested at Columbia University due to insufficient evidence. Of the 46 initially arrested, 15 still face charges, with some offered deferred prosecution deals. The remaining defendants rejected these deals to present a united front against what they perceive as state repression.
