First off, some Twain:
"Don't let schooling interfere with your education."

What's wrong with shutting down a college/university via protests about
some issue important to the student body as a whole (which is the case
in this instance)?  So long as there is no rioting or property damage I
see no problem here.  This is not 20 or so students holding a campus
hostage here, it's a good chunk of the student body.  How else are they
supposed to get the results they want?
