OLYMPIA, Wash. – The Evergreen State College in Olympia is closed again.

The decision was made to shut down this afternoon because a conservative group is holding a pro-Donald-Trump-rally.

Counter-protests are also expected.

Demonstrations earlier this year at the progressive college related to race, equality and free speech gained national attention and led to threats that prompted the school to close for three days.
