    Yes, protest at your campus, not at freeways

    I graduated from USC in the 80's and at graduation, I literally just walked to my chair & sat down, as did my family. The word "safety" was nowhere to be found. 😆

    Great Decision by the USC President! The safety of the families visiting for commencement is the most critical priority. All of the colleges should follow USC's outstanding and selfless example.

    Actually, the 64,000 is the graduating students plus their invited guests.

    I think that commencement ceremony is gonna end up being a blast 💥👀😂. So much damn attention these universities want that they’re probably gonna end up getting it. 🤦🏻‍♂️
  • Students should protest against these pro Hamas activists. They are a small number but ruin every student’s memory and years of efforts.

    I feel really bad for the graduates who lost their chance to celebrate all the hard work they did for the past years. The families’ chance to celebrate the special occasion had been ruined by bringing politics into it. It’s for safety’s sake for the 64K graduates and their families...

    As an employer, I now know that if any applicant for a job I'm offering has a degree from USC then they're automatically unqualified for the position.

    Inmates running the asylum. Correction: Hamas-endorsed inmates running the asylum. 😅

    USC's lame excuse for cancelling celebration for so called safety. bs.
  • The main ceremony is cancelled, but NOT the Black Graduation Ceremony for Black students.
  • 0:13 Annette might want to think about changing her last name. It does rhyme with a female body part after all. Lmao Seinfeld haha.
