While USC began accepting ticket reservations for the upcoming commencement events, UCLA decided to block access to a building on campus.As the campuses of the University of California, Los Angeles and the University of Southern California continue to grapple with the fallout from pro-Palestinian protests, the two universities announced updated security measures Tuesday amid campus unrest.
As the university canceled the “main stage” ceremony amid the ongoing campus protest, it had informed students and faculty that free tickets would be required to gain access to campus and over 100 commencement venues. The school also reminded students that a clear bag policy will be enforced during the commencement events from May 8 through 11. Metal barricades as well as campus security officers are restricting access to certain parts of the campus. Pro-Palestinian activists have also hired their own security officers to block access to their campsite.
When a fight broke out between pro-Palestinian protesters and pro-Israel demonstrators early Tuesday morning, campus police responded in tactical gear to separate the groups.
