Temperatures have begun to drop on the Main Quad as day two of the encampment draws to a close. Small clusters remain speckled throughout the encampment, however, activity has largely settled down with many protesters heading into their tents for the night. 

Day two was relatively uneventful compared to activities from earlier in the weekend, with minimal police presence and protesters largely left alone. At this point, there are still no negotiations occurring between the University administration and members involved with the encampment. 

Several attempts at negotiations have fallen through, including a meeting between protesters and the University originally scheduled to occur Monday afternoon. Both parties are currently claiming the other is responsible for conversations not moving forward.

Reporters from The Daily Illini will continue providing updates throughout the night, along with livestreaming on Instagram
