A large group of students walked out of the University of Notre Dame's commencement ceremony Sunday in protest of Vice President Mike Pence's policies.

Video from the event shows people applauding followed by loud boos as the vice president began a commencement address at the school, while dozens of students began to file out from the floor of the stadium.


There are some videos in the article.

Yes, it's disrespectful. While I don't agree with the current administration on just about anything, they certainly haven't done anything worth walk out on. Have they really done anything of any substance yet?

PoliBoard really only goes one way with these topics. I was hoping to get a better discussion here.

But do what you have to do.

People today aren't even willing to listen to a person who might offer an alternative opinion.

We need a good unifying event.

Notre Dame should publish a list of those who walked out and send it out to all businesses so they don't hire these snowflakes.

In some of the videos I saw, some old guy was carrying around a "hey 45, let's see your taxes"

It's a fricking graduation ceremony!

Well there is only way for this to go. Staging a walkout in the middle of the Vice-President's speech? Give me a break. Of course that's disrespectful.

Not a trump fan, but this is disrespectful.

Especially considering not too long ago he was their governor.

It's BS. You can disagree and not make a scene. But kids these days are weak.
