If USC alumni had any balls, there would be piles of dead protesters in the streets by dawn. They don't so there won't be. In the wake of a controversy surrounding the valedictory address and pro- Palestinian demonstrators on campus, the University of Southern California on Thursday announced its main graduation ceremony will not be held. With the new safety measures in place this year, the time needed to process the large number of guests coming to campus will increase substantially, the school wrote in an announcement. As a result, we will not be able to host the main stage ceremony that traditionally brings 65,000 students, families, and friends to our campus all at the same time and during a short window from 8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. School officials said they plan to post details of their updated commencement plans on the graduation website by April 30. https://fox5sandiego.com/news/california-news/usc-cancels-main-graduation- ceremony-due-to-protests-valedictorian-controversy/
