As the University of Southern California in Los Angeles canceled its main commencement ceremony because of safety concerns over student protests, students at Columbia University in New York, where anti-war demonstrations led to dozens of arrests, said they feared theirs could be disrupted.

” At Columbia, Sears said, “I am concerned that there could be disruptions to graduation, especially because it is an event that a lot of people are looking at.” Columbia said in a statement this week that it was “focused on the events at hand and keeping the campus community safe and secure.” “Planning is underway for commencement, as well, with the same goals in mind for this cherished annual celebration,” it said.
