In a rally that drew about 200 people, activists accused the university of failing to provide affordable child care or health care.

A Yale spokesman said graduate students receive significant financial aid that includes free tuition, stipends and health care.

The author Barbara Ehrenreich spoke at the rally and later was among those arrested.
