    If I was student who spent my time there doing what i needed to do to make it to graduation. I would be pissed and protesting against the protesters on my campus. Someone somewhere needs to stand up to these protesters.

    Do you know how important commencement is to the students that worked so hard for four years? It was to me. It was a culmination of all my hard work and now it’s being taken away.

    Commencement is not a requirement to receive your degree. It's not an important event. I'd be okay with that.

      They know what happens if they allow commencement to take place.
      They were absolutely wise to remove it from the schedule.
