Double masker says what?
No, but seriously... Universities are serious places where hundreds of thousands of dollars per student are spent by serious people studying serious things.
At this point, I don't think I could invent a less sympathetic and more contempteble group of people. People love to claim that this generation of young people isn't REALLY feckless and entitled, having never heard no in their entire life, and yet, here we keep finding ourselves.

It is funny watching fans at the NFL draft pretend like they have any idea who their team just chose, and then react like they just won cash.
Sigh

The Falcons drafting Michael Penix Jr. after they just gave Kirk Cousins $180M
If I was Cousins I would hold out, refuse to play for the Falcons, and demand a trade. He signed a multi-year deal to be the quarterback there and they stab him in the back before he even takes a snap. Absurd.

Cowards. This is shameful and if I was a USC student, I would be volcanic. I am actually set to graduate from grad school at George Mason in 2 weeks and I moved heaven and Earth to arrange my insane schedule to go to commencement. If it got canceled I would lose my mind.

Yeah, honestly, this is all I would be looking for. Maintain orderly function of the institution while allowing whatever speech to occur that they want, provided it isn’t directly violent/threatening. This is the way.

If you’re arresting them for an illegal encampment or for making threats then say that. But arresting people for “antisemitism” is obviously a clear violation of the First Amendment. I can’t stand these protesters but you can’t arrest people simply for having “hateful” views.
