Fox News
USC announced Thursday it is scrapping its main stage commencement ceremony for its 2024 graduates after its campus was shut down when anti-Israel protests erupted.
The university noted that individual school commencement ceremonies, doctoral hooding ceremonies and other celebrations and activities will still be held between May 8-11, though it warned students and their families to "allow more time" to get to their commencements due to heightened security measures.
