For the first time, anyone interested in visiting Duke can explore key university buildings and hear from Duke students about life on campus without stepping foot on university grounds.
Dukeâs new YouVisit virtual tour launched June 5 and allows people to tour Duke on their computer or smart phone. The experience includes optional commentary from student tour guides, 360-degree photos and videos.
"We know that the campus tour is an essential part of understanding a college, and given Dukeâs international reputation we also know that itâs not possible for everyone to visit the campus as they consider applying," said Christoph Guttentag, dean of undergraduate admissions. "This online tour will give thousands of interested students and families the opportunity to get a sense of the places and resources that make Duke special. Iâm pleased that weâll be able to review and make modifications to the tour in the future, to take advantage of the changes still coming on campus."
âItâs a great opportunity to showcase the beauty of Dukeâs campus and our vibrant academic environment on a digital platform,â said Blyth Morrell, Dukeâs director of digital and strategic communications. âIt also offers people from around the world an opportunity to visit Duke without leaving their desks.â
The tour takes visitors through Dukeâs iconic West Campus including stops at the Duke University Chapel, the new 70,000 square-foot Duke Student Wellness Center and Wallace Wade Stadium. The tour also explores Dukeâs East Campus, which is where freshmen will spend a majority of their first year. Prospective students will get a feel for the student experience by touring residence halls, libraries and dining locations.
Creating the tour was a partnership between Dukeâs Office of News and Communications and Duke Admissions.

Virtual tours are a great way to refresh your memory or to preview an on-site tour of Duke.
Do I Really Need to Take a Tour?
At the beginning of your college search, a virtual tour can be a beneficial tool to explore the campus before your visit. When you do visit the campus, be sure to talk to current students about their experiences. A student perspective is a helpful way to gauge your future experience when attending Duke University. Already took an on-campus tour? It's inevitable. All of your college tours will blend, and you might forget the appearance of Duke's library, dorms, or cafeteria. Use the virtual tour to jog your memory! With the interactive mapping tool below you can even explore the area surrounding the campus.
Use the resources below to start your virtual tour.
Using the Map
Click and drag the little orange person to a location on the map. Locations with panoramas appear as blue lines or blue dots when moving the orange person. The blue dots are panoramic views that you may swivel. The blue lines are paths that you can navigate along.
Panoramic View
You can "pan" or "swivel" the camera around by clicking on the image and dragging your mouse or finger. If you see a white arrow on the picture, you can click or tap on it to move in the direction of the arrow.

Visiting International Student Program
- VIS Overview
VIS OVERVIEW
Study at duke university for a semester or a year as a non-degree student.
The Visiting International Student (VIS) Program is an opportunity for foreign-national students enrolled at universities outside the U.S. to study at Duke University for a fall semester or a full academic year. The program is designed for undergraduate students, usually in their second or third year of studies, who have a thorough knowledge of the English language.
Students admitted to the Visiting International Student (VIS) Program may study at Duke for a period of one fall semester or one academic year (two semesters at four months each), but cannot extend the term or transfer into the four-year degree program at Duke.
ELIGIBILITY
Applicants should be full-time students of a university or college based outside the U.S.
View Admissions Requirements
For Duke Kunshan University students interested in studying at Duke, please contact the Duke Kunshan University Global Education Office [email protected] .
VIS participants join regular Duke University undergraduates in the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences or Pratt College of Engineering of Duke University as non-degree students. While at Duke, Visiting International Students are treated as full-time Duke students, taking classes and examinations as home students do.
Visiting International Students may take up to four academic courses, plus one to two non-academic courses (e.g. physical education or house course) per semester.
VIS participants are limited to undergraduate courses and may not take classes in Duke's graduate level professional schools such as Fuqua School of Business, the Law School, the Medical School, etc.
Students will only be able to enroll in university courses taught on the Duke campus in Durham, North Carolina, during the academic year.

Undergraduate Experience
From academics to student activities, from research opportunities to campus support services, there's a lot to discover about what life is like as a Duke undergraduate student.
Dukeâs remarkable reputation brought many intellectuals and successful people to campus, and gave me the chance to talk to people I didn't even dream of meeting.”
HOUSING & MEALS
Students admitted to the Undergraduate Visiting International Student Program or as an undergraduate exchange student will be housed on West Campus in double rooms, or suites. Housing will be arranged by university administrators based on preferences indicated by the student once accepted.
Whenever possible, VIS students will be assigned roommates who are not VIS program participants. This gives VIS students a chance to meet local Duke students and better connect to the campus culture.
Housing sign-up: Admitted Visiting International Students will be sent special instructions on how to sign up for university assignments and early move-in. Please do not attempt to sign up for university housing outside of the specific VIS instructions.
Meals Plans
Students in university housing are required to purchase meal plans. Visit dining.duke.edu  for more information.
Overall expenses will vary and depend somewhat upon a student's individual needs, but all VIS students pay standard Duke tuition and fees.Â
Review VIS Program Costs
Student Visas
Duke University requires applicants to the Visiting International Student Program to complete a preliminary visa application. The Duke Global Education Office for Undergraduates will facilitate access to Duke's visa application for qualified applicants. Once a student is accepted and committed to Duke's Undergraduate Visiting International Student Program, Duke's Visa Services Office will provide the student with proper documentation to obtain a student visa for study at Duke.
To obtain a visa for study in the United States, a foreign national must furnish their country's United States consulate with proof of their ability to meet educational expenses. The foreign national should not plan to work in the United States since one's ability to pay must be based upon resources available at the time of application. A certificate of eligibility (DS-2019) for a visa application will be issued only to foreign nationals who have been accepted, paid reservation fees, and provided sufficient financial documentation.
Currently, VIS can only obtain the J-1 visa from Duke. Duke is no longer authorized to sponsor the short term F-1 visa . All Visiting International Students must be sponsored under the J-1 visa category ( https://visaservices.duke.edu/visa-categories/j-1-visa-classification/ ). Incoming students must have at least part of their funding coming from non-family sources (government sponsorship, private scholarship, home institution scholarship, etc.) to qualify for the J-1 visa.

View transcript for Episode 1.
2: What Is a Lemur?
This introduction to all things lemur will answer all of your questions about what lemurs are, where they fit in the family tree, and how they came to live on the island of Madagascar. Dr. Matt Borths takes us on a journey to the Duke Lemur Center’s Museum of Natural History (formerly the Division of Fossil Primates)Â where we’ll meet a few of the oldest members of the lemur family and learn what makes lemurs so remarkable!
View transcript for Episode 2. Â
3: Housing at the DLC
The residents of the Duke Lemur Center have a variety of places to call home, whether its out in the multi-acre forested enclosures or in the dark and quiet of the Nocturnal Building. Take a tour of the lemurs’ housing areas in this video to see how we keep all of our many different lemur species safe, socialized, and stimulated!
View transcript for Episode 3.
4: Coquerel’s Sifaka
Time to jump in! Our first featured lemur species is the bouncy, leaf-eating Coquerel’s sifaka of Zoboomafoo fame! In this adventure into the DLC’s Natural Habitat Enclosures, we’ll watch sifaka doing the things they do bestâall while learning how we keep lemurs safe and healthy in their forested areas. Take a (bipedal) walk on the wild side with Pompeia, Francesca, and a couple of photobombing friends!
Want to learn more AND support our lemurs’ care at the DLC and their conservation in Madagascar? Become a “lemur parent” by symbolically adopting Pompeia through our Adopt a Lemur program! You can also read our interview with Zoboomafoo co-creator Martin Kratt in the DLC’s 2019 annual magazine .
View transcript for Episode 4.
5: Collared Lemur
Any collared lemur fans out there? By the end of this video, we hope you will be! Meet some of our cute and curious collared lemur residents here at the DLC and learn what a lemur’s social life looks like, whether lemurs play well with others, and how we keep these primates busy and entertained in our care. After watching, you can learn even more about our enrichment program and even send a lemur a present via the DLC’s amazon.com wishlist!
View transcript for Episode 5.
6: Ruffed Lemurs
What’s black and white and red and fluffy all over? You’ll find out in this double-trouble video featuring two of the furriest and noisiest lemurs at the DLC: the red ruffed lemur and the black and white ruffed lemur. Learn how these lemur species adapt to life in the rainforest, what their role is in the ecosystem, how they communicate, and how they handle three very wiggly triplets… !
Ruffed lemurs may be the world’s largest pollinators, but don’t overlook the smaller, less exotic pollinators in your own local ecosystem! Conservation starts literally in our own backyards. Our local ecosystems, habitats, and animals/insects should be protected and supported, in the same way that lemurs and their habitat in Madagascar should be.
The DLC’s summer tour path is a certified Monarch Waystation. To learn more about the importance of Monarch Waystations and how to create your own, please visit MonarchWatch.org . You can also download a list of plants used in the Duke Lemur Centerâs summer garden and tour path. On the list, plants are identified as native and/or attractive to butterflies.
View transcript for episode 6.
7: Mongoose Lemur
Curious about lemur care at the DLC? Mongoose lemurs Mico and Bonita help answer all the important questions: What do lemurs eat? When do lemurs sleep? How long do lemurs live? They are especially happy to demonstrate the eating part. Feel free to snack along during this video!
View transcript for Episode 7.
8: Crowned Lemur
Presenting their majesties, the crowned lemurs ! Join the royal family to learn about the Duke Lemur Center’s conservation breeding program , meet baby Nedjem , and discover why baby lemurs are so important for species survival in Madagascar.
View transcript for Episode 8.
9: Blue-eyed Black Lemur
These blue-eyed black lemurs are certainly deserving of their celebrity-inspired namesânot only are they extremely rare, they have the best fashion sense around! Find out why these beautiful lemurs are so special and unique, and how the Duke Lemur Center is working hard to make sure their population stays healthy for many years to come. This includes bringing Mangamaso and Velona, a breeding pair of blue-eyed black lemurs, to the Lemur Center in 2017âthe first time lemurs had been imported to the US in 24 years!
Both Mangamaso and Velona were relocated from Parc Ivoloina, a nonprofit nature center in eastern Madagascar where they and their parents were born into a conservation breeding program. They have since had an extraordinary baby of their own, christened Ranomasina (“across the sea”) in recognition of her parents’ extraordinary journey.
View transcript for episode 9.
10: Ring-tailed Lemur
We’re pretty sure you’ll recognize these guysâMadagascar’s iconic ring-tailed lemurs are among the most well-known lemurs of all! With their stripy tails, stinky habits, and girl-power attitude, these primates are sure to inspire some lemur love. In this video, we talk about why the best way to love lemurs is to respect them as wild animalsâone of many reasons lemurs should never be kept as pets.
View transcript for episode 10.
11: Mouse Lemur
Don’t be fooled by the size: These two fun-sized primates are some of the coolest, smartest, and fastest animals living at the Duke Lemur Center, and they’re helping with some really awesome non-invasive research projects, tooâincluding shedding light on Alzheimer’s disease. Using positive reinforcement training with pineapple juice rewards, they can even use tiny touchscreens!
While these small fries are sometimes too tiny and too fast to see clearly on a live tour, we take you behind-the-scenes to get a good look at the gray mouse lemur in all its (miniature) glory.
View transcript for episode 11.
12: Bush Baby
One of these things is not like the other! The Duke Lemur Center is not only home to 12 different species of lemur, but also one species of bush baby! While this species is from mainland Africa and would never share space with a lemur in the wild, they make great neighbors to our other nocturnal species here at the DLC. See if you can keep up with these big-eared, bug-eating jumping beans!
View transcript for episode 12.
13: Aye-ayes
There’s something strange about this lemur but we can’t quite put our finger on it… ! Find out what makes the aye-aye so unique, and how our animal caretakers work hard to make sure our aye-ayes can use their talents every day. An extremely rare and endlessly fascinating lemur, the aye-aye continues to teach us about the natural history of the lemur family, and their somewhat spooky appearance makes us love them even more!
Unfortunately, not everyone feels the same way about aye-ayes, and in this video we learn how cultural perspectives or even first impressions of an animal may affect their survival in the wild.
View transcript for episode 13.
14: Fat-tailed Dwarf Lemurs
Sometimes really amazing discoveries come in small packages! Learn how the fat-tailed dwarf lemur earns its funny name, how its body responds to hibernation and topor, and why studying its remarkable habits could have a huge impact in the human world.
Intrigued? If you’d like to learn more about these amazing hibernating primates, check out this informative and adorably illustrated video  by Sheena Faherty, one of DLC Director Anne Yoderâs former graduate students. While pursuing her Ph.D. here at Duke, Sheena studied the only primates capable of hibernation behavior: the fat-tailed dwarf lemurs of Madagascar!
You can also watch the talk Sheena gave at the DLCâs 50th-anniversary scientific symposium: âGene expression and physiological extremes in primate hibernationâ and explore the article “Could People Hibernate? Lemurs Give Clues” published in National Geographic, which discusses how studying hibernation in fat-tailed dwarf lemurs can help people, too – from terminally ill patients to soldiers and astronauts.

Celebrating Excellence: Duke Anesthesiology Faculty Earn Distinguished SoM Awards
The Duke University School of Medicine (SoM) has selected two esteemed Duke Anesthesiology faculty members as recipients of a 2024 distinguished faculty award. Annemarie Thompson, MD, FAHA, MBA, earned the Leonard Palumbo Jr., MD, Faculty Achievement Award and Madhav Swaminathan, MD, MMCi, FASE, earned the Master Clinician/Teacher Award.
Thompsonâs award honors her dedication to compassionate patient care and excellence in the teaching and mentoring of young physicians. This award is named for Dr. Leonard Palumbo Jr., who completed his undergraduate and medical degrees, as well as his clinical training, here at Duke. Palumbo was a compassionate and empathetic clinician and a dedicated and talented educator. His commitment to both patients and students inspired the establishment of this award in 1999 by his brother, also a Duke alumnus, Mr. Art Palumbo.
âI am deeply honored to receive the Palumbo award, and it is especially meaningful to be nominated by the Duke community of physicians whom I very much admire and respect,â says Thompson, professor of anesthesiology, medicine and population health sciences . âIt is a choice and a privilege to work alongside them with the shared goals of patient care, education and discovery.â Thompson joined Duke Anesthesiology faculty in 2014 and serves as the departmentâs vice chair for education and director of the Duke Anesthesiology Residency Program.
Swaminathanâs award recognizes his s uperlative accomplishment in teaching and/or clinical care and his extraordinary commitment âabove and beyondâ normal expectations. "I am deeply honored to receive this award. While the award recognizes one individual, it truly belongs to the department that fosters a learning environment that strives for excellence every day,â says Swaminathan, professor of anesthesiology. He joined Duke Anesthesiology faculty in 2002 and serves as the departmentâs vice chair for faculty affairs.
Included in the award nominations for Thompson and Swaminathan are the following excerpts:
â[Dr. Thompson] leads by example and mentors not by just showing or telling, but by empowering her mentees with resources, opportunities, support, and honest feedback. She doesnât tell you what you want to hear but what you need to hear in order to get you out of your comfort zone and achieve growth.â | âShe provides exceptional clinical care for the most complex and critically ill patients and does so while maintaining compassion in the most challenging situations.â
âWhat sets Dr. Swaminathan apart is his commitment to the holistic development of learners. He goes beyond the standard curriculum, ensuring that his trainees not only excel in technical skills but also develop the critical thinking and emotional intelligence necessary for patient-centered care.â | âHe possesses a rare blend of clinical expertise and a genuine passion for teaching, making him a role model for trainees and colleagues alike.â
Thompson and Swaminathan are among a select group of 24 faculty who received a SoM faculty award this year. Duke University School of Medicineâs Dean Mary Klotman presented the awards to the recipients at the annual Spring Faculty Celebration on May 13 at the Doris Duke Center.

I have questions about my need-based financial aid package. Whom should I contact?
Check out this FAQ or email [email protected] .
How do I know if Iâm eligible for a merit scholarship?
Duke is proud to offer merit scholarships to incoming first-year students. These scholarships cover the cost of tuition, mandatory fees, room, and board for four years of full-time undergraduate studies. There is not a separate application for these scholarships, except for the Robertson Scholars Program .
All students who apply to Duke are automatically considered for merit scholarships . Matriculated students who are finalists for merit scholarships will be notified in early May. Please note that some merit scholarships require that the applicant show financial need, and that means that in order to be considered for them, you’ll need to complete your financial aid application before the application deadline.
HOW DO I SEND FINAL TEST SCORES?
Send us your official test scores no later than June 15, 2024. Dukeâs test codes are 5156 (SAT) and 3088 (ACT). If you received an application fee waiver, we will accept scores from your counselor in place of official scores.
Test-optional students may skip this step.
HOW DO I SEND MY FINAL SCHOOL REPORT?
We will accept Final School Reports through the Common or Coalition Application or submitted by counselors/school officials via email .
WHAT CREDIT CAN I GET FOR AP AND IB COURSES?
Duke University awards a limited amount of course credit and advanced placement on the basis of scores earned on Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB) and pre-matriculation college course work. However, course credit and advanced placement are not granted until the student has been admitted and until the official reports are received and evaluated by our Registrarâs Office. Since this process is handled outside the Admissions Office, a credit evaluation cannot be made until the student arrives on campus. For more information, visit admissions.duke.edu/college-prep .
Can you provide any information about student visas?
We will process I-20s as usual in the hope that international students will be able to secure visas and enter the United States.
My (AP/IB/A level and other national exams) have been cancelled. How will Duke assess my academic performance?
For admissions purposes, we will accept final school reports in lieu of these exams. Pass/fail grades are fine. We do not yet know about any changes for placement or credit.
If my familyâs financial situation has changed and I will now need financial aid in order to attend Duke. Is there a process for this?
We are not able to offer need-based aid to foreign citizens unless they indicated they were seeking aid in their admissions applications. For those students eligible for need-based aid, we continue to be committed to meeting full demonstrated need for all four years of their undergraduate education, even if the amount of that need changes while students are at Duke. If you have questions about your financial aid award, please contact Dukeâs Office of Undergraduate Financial Support via email at [email protected] .
DOES DUKE HAVE A "GAP YEAR" OR DEFERRED ENROLLMENT POLICY?
As you prepare for college, you may want to explore other interests such as personal and professional development, religious or mission work, travel, or required military service. If your gap year, or âdeferred enrollment,â is approved and you adhere to the gap year conditions, we hold your place in the following yearâs class. Students who defer their enrollment are expected to enroll at Duke at the end of their gap year.
Duke offers two options for students who plan to defer their enrollment: the Duke Gap Year Program , a selective program that offers community and the possibility of funding to support eligible gap year experiences, and independent gap years.
Note: In general, Duke students do a one-year gap, but depending on the request, we can approve up to two years.
To request a gap year/deferred enrollment:
- Enroll at Duke University through your student portal (no deposit required).
- Apply to the Duke Gap Year Program or request an independent gap year on your student portal. The forms will open in the spring.
If you choose to defer enrollment via the Duke Gap Year Program or independently, you must accept the following conditions:
- You will not apply for admission as a degree-seeking student to any other college or university during your gap year.
- Trinity College treats PMC credits equivalent to Advanced Placement (AP) and International Placement (IP) credits. Typically, up to two total AP/IP/PMC credits count toward the 34 courses Trinity students must take to graduate from Duke.
- You can learn more about PMC credits for Pratt students on the Pratt website .
- You will not hold a place, conditional or otherwise, at any other college or university during the remainder of this academic year or during the coming academic year.
- You will not enroll in a post-graduate program at a secondary school.
- You will abide by both the Conditions of Application and the conditions mentioned in your letter of admission. We expect you to maintain high standards of academic performance and personal behavior in and out of school, which includes abiding by our Community Standard . If there is any change in the information in your applicationâincluding any academic, personal, disciplinary, or legal mattersâyou must contact the admissions office within 48 hours.
You can learn more about gap year options on our website .
WHAT IS THE DUKE GAP YEAR PROGRAM?
Students who wish to participate in Dukeâs intentional gap year community are invited to apply to the Duke Gap Year Program. Applicants to the DGYP may request between $5,000 and $15,000 in funding to support eligible gap year experiences. DGYP participants must adhere to the gap year conditions and fulfill a few other requirements, including but not limited to contributions to the DGYP blog and Instagram account. Applications open in the spring.
Remember: if you do not apply or are not admitted to the DGYP, you can still request an independent gap year on your student portal.

Campus Protests A Few Graduations Are Disrupted by Protest, but Many Are Held as Planned
- Share full article
Hereâs the latest on campus protests.
A protest involving hundreds of students disrupted the commencement on Saturday at the University of California, Berkeley, the biggest display of activism on a day that included many graduations without incident.
Dozens of graduates walked out during Gov. Glenn Youngkinâs speech at Virginia Commonwealth University. And at the University of Wisconsin, a handful of graduates stood with their backs to their chancellor as she spoke. But many ceremonies were held as planned.
The ceremonies came after a week in which some colleges made arrests and cleared encampments of pro-Palestinian demonstrators. In recent days, the authorities cleared tents at the University of Pennsylvania and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology . And officers were also called in to clear an encampment at the University of Arizona in Tucson, deploying âchemical munitionsâ in the process, hours before its graduation ceremony on Friday evening.
The University of Illinois, California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt , the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the University of Texas at Austin are also among the colleges holding their main commencement ceremonies Saturday. Many had increased their security measures in anticipation of possible disruptions, or taken various measures including dismantling encampments, setting aside free speech zones, canceling student speeches and issuing admission tickets.
The University of Wisconsin said it had reached a deal with protesters to clear the encampment before Saturdayâs commencement in return for meeting to discuss the universityâs investments. At the University of Mississippi, where there had been a confrontation between counterprotesters who taunted and jeered a female Black student protester, there were no demonstrations and light security.
At Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, where the ceremony included more than 1,000 students, some students had objected to the appearance by Mr. Youngkin, a Republican, in part because he supported the dismantling of an encampment on campus. Late last month, 13 people, including six students, were arrested. A reporter in attendance at the graduation was not permitted to leave the auditorium to speak with the students who walked out.
Here are other developments:
Arizona State University has banned a postdoctoral research scholar and faculty member from campus as it investigates a video that went viral depicting him confronting a woman in a hijab, the school said this week. In the video from May 5, the scholar can be seen cursing and getting in a womanâs face at a pro-Israel rally near the schoolâs Tempe campus .
Xavier University of Louisiana in New Orleans this week became the second school to rescind an invitation to Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. The University of Vermont said last week that she would not be speaking there, agreeing to a demand from student demonstrators.
Arizona State University has put the chief of its campus police department on paid administrative leave. Complaints had been filed related to the chiefâs actions in late April, when the campus police broke up a pro-Palestinian encampment and arrested dozens of people.
Faculty members at the University of California, Los Angeles, failed to come to a vote on Friday on whether to formally rebuke the schoolâs chancellor for his handling of the campus encampment, where pro-Palestinian demonstrators were attacked for hours last week without police intervention.
More than 2,800 people have been arrested at pro-Palestinian protests on U.S. campuses since April 18, according to New York Times tracking data .

On a day with many calm ceremonies, Berkeleyâs protests stand out.
At the University of California, Berkeley, hundreds of soon-to-be graduates rose from their seats in protest, chanting and disrupting their commencement. At Virginia Commonwealth University, about 60 graduates in caps and gowns walked out during Gov. Glenn Youngkinâs speech. At the University of Wisconsin, a handful of graduates stood with their backs to their chancellor as she spoke.
After weeks of tumult on college campuses over pro-Palestinian protests, many administrators prepared themselves for disruptions at graduations on Saturday. And while there were demonstrations â most noisily, perhaps, at U.C. Berkeley â ceremonies at several universities unfolded without major incident. Many students who protested did so silently.
Anticipating possible disruptions, university administrators had increased their security or taken various measures, including dismantling encampments, setting aside free speech zones, canceling student speeches and issuing admission tickets.
Some administrators also tried to reach agreements with encampment organizers. The University of Wisconsin said it had reached a deal with protesters to clear the encampment in return for a meeting to discuss the universityâs investments.
Some students, too, were on edge about their big day â many missed their high school graduations four years ago because of the pandemic and did not want to repeat the experience.
In 2020, David Emuze and his mother had watched his high school graduation âceremony,â a parade of senior photos set to music on Zoom, from their living room in Springfield, Ill. This time, he and his classmates at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign heard that other schools, like the University of Southern California and Columbia University, had canceled their main-stage commencements altogether because of campus unrest.
But on Saturday morning, Mr. Emuze donned his electric-blue mortarboard and orange sash, and his mother watched live from the audience as he received his bachelorâs degree in public health. âIt was a touching, peaceful, inspiring and motivational ceremony,â he said, with a note of relief in his voice.
He said the keynote speaker, Jeanne Gang, an architect and University of Illinois alumna, had hit just the right note. She acknowledged that âwe all know about whatâs going on in the world right now,â but said it was a time to come together and celebrate achievements.
At Berkeley, the home of the free-speech movement, the protesters made themselves heard. Greta Brown, 23, an environmental science graduate, wore cap, gown and a stole with the word âPalestineâ emblazoned on it. She was among those who stood and chanted during the graduation speeches. âI felt like it was necessary,â she said, because the university had not done enough. âI just heard a lot of, like, âOh, we hear you,â and a centrist point of view.â
At the beginning of the ceremony, Chancellor Carol Christ was met with boos when she began to speak, but there were louder cheers when she mentioned the pro-Palestinian encampment nearby. âStudents have been camping around Sproul Hall for almost three weeks,â Dr. Christ said. âThey feel passionately about the brutality of the violence in Gaza.â She added, âI, too, am deeply troubled by the terrible tragedy.â
As the speeches continued, the disruptions escalated. Dozens of students in the crowd in the stands rose with signs reading âDivest,â and at least 10 Palestinian flags. They began to chant, and then interrupted the speech by the student body president, Sydney Roberts, who said, âThis wouldnât be Berkeley without a protest.â
Despite warnings from a school official, a group of students staked out a section of empty stadium seats behind the main stage, chanting, âHey hey, ho ho, the occupation has got to goâ and âUC divestâ and attracting other students until the crowd swelled to about 500. Most of them slowly made their way to the exit as the graduation drew to a close.
Not all of the protests were centered on the Middle East. At Virginia Commonwealth in Richmond, Micah White, 26, was one of roughly 60 students who walked out while the governor was speaking.
âThe first thing that motivated me is the hypocrisy of V.C.U. declaring themselves to be a minority-serving institution, declaring themselves to be for diversity, equity and inclusion, and bringing Youngkin in as commencement speaker,â he said.
The universityâs board voted on Friday against requiring students to take racial literacy classes . Mr. Youngkin, a Republican, requested to review course materials for proposed racial literacy classes.
Mr. Youngkin also supported the dismantling of an encampment on campus late last month during which 13 people, including six students, were arrested. Sereen Haddad, 19, who studies psychology at V.C.U., said she was knocked to the ground during the clash between protesters and the police that day and that Mr. Youngkin had failed to acknowledge that the encampment was peaceful.
The ceremonies came after a week in which some colleges made arrests and cleared encampments of pro-Palestinian demonstrators. In recent days, authorities dismantled encampments at the University of Pennsylvania and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology . Officers were also called in to empty an encampment at the University of Arizona, in Tucson, deploying âchemical munitionsâ in the process, hours before its graduation ceremony on Friday evening.
Anger over the clearing of an encampment lingered for some at the University of North Carolina commencement on Saturday night. Many students jeered their interim chancellor, Lee Roberts, who last month ordered that an encampment of pro-Palestinian protesters be removed. Still, when two students waved Palestinian flags and walked on the field in the middle of Mr. Robertsâs speech before security escorted them out, the majority of the stadium booed them and chanted, âUSA! USA!â

At U.C. Berkeley ceremony, a student protest draws in hundreds.
Befitting a campus synonymous with student protest, the graduation ceremony at the University of California, Berkeley, on Saturday blurred the lines between pomp and pro-Palestinian activism.
When the university chancellor, Carol Christ, took the stage around 10:45 a.m. at the schoolâs Memorial Stadium, a smattering of boos erupted from graduating students. But her initial remarks, acknowledging the students camping on Berkeleyâs Sproul Plaza for almost three weeks, elicited cheers. âThey feel passionately about the brutality of the violence in Gaza,â she said. âI, too, am deeply troubled by the terrible tragedy.â
As the chancellor continued, dozens of students in the crowd in the stands rose with signs reading, âDivest,â and at least 10 Palestinian flags. They began to chant: âHey hey, ho ho, the occupation has got to goâ and âU.C. divest.â They also interrupted the speech by the student body president, Sydney Roberts, who said, âThis wouldnât be Berkeley without a protest.â
Ms. Roberts continued her speech, expressing pride in the activism on campus and empathy for those affected by the conflict in Gaza. The chants did not stop. Sunny Lee, associate vice chancellor and dean of students, interrupted and warned that those continuing to disrupt the ceremony would be asked to leave. That was greeted by cheers from the crowd of guests, largely studentsâ families, seated in a majority of the sections.
Greta Brown, 23, a graduate in environmental science, was one of the students who joined in the chanting. Dressed in her cap, gown and a stole that said âPalestine,â she said she had felt the recent tension on campus and was compelled to support her fellow students. âI felt like it was necessary,â she said.
A group of about 50 students then staked out a section of empty stadium seats behind the main stage, continuing their chanting. Hundreds of Berkeley graduating students stood up and left the designated student section to join them, swelling the crowd behind the stage to about 500.
Ms. Lee warned that security personnel would start removing protesters. She paused the speaker, and the stadium put on Journeyâs âDonât Stop Believinââ for about five minutes. Eventually, more security guards gathered in front of the protesting students. Amid the Palestinian flags and continuing chants, most of the protesters slowly made their way from behind the speakers to the concourse above the stadium as the graduation drew to a close.
About 100 of the demonstrators regrouped on the street outside the stadium to continue protesting, with signs condemning Zionism and calling for alumni to not donate to the school.
âI think it was a graduation to remember,â said Sahar Enayati, 21, a graduating senior.
An earlier version of this article misidentified the official who issued the warning during Sydney Robertsâs speech. It was Sunny Lee, associate vice chancellor and dean of students, not the vice provost Lisa GarcĂa Bedolla.

Arizona State bans a scholar from campus after a confrontation at a protest.
Arizona State University has banned a postdoctoral research scholar and faculty member from campus as it investigates a video that went viral depicting him confronting a woman in a hijab, the school said this week.
In the video from May 5, the scholar, Jonathan Yudelman, along with another unidentified man, can be seen cursing and getting in a womanâs face at a pro-Israel rally near the schoolâs Tempe campus .
It was unclear what occurred before the video, but at one point in the video Mr. Yudelman can be seen repeatedly advancing toward the woman who is wearing a hijab, and telling her â âIâm literally in your face, thatâs rightâ â as she backs away from him.
The woman responds and tells him that he is disrespecting her religious boundaries to which Mr. Yudelman responds, âYou disrespect my sense of humanity,â followed by a profanity.
Mr. Yudelman, who was a postdoctoral fellow at the universityâs School of Civics, Ethics and Leadership , had earlier resigned from the position, effective June 30, according to a statement the school released on Wednesday. But the school said he was placed on leave on May 6, adding that he was no longer permitted to come to campus, teach classes or interact with students or employees.
âArizona State University protects freedom of speech and expression but does not tolerate threatening or violent behavior. While peaceful protest is welcome, all incidents of violent or threatening behavior will be addressed,â the statement added.
Mr. Yudelman was interviewed on May 5 at the pro-Israel rally by Phoenix television station KPNX . In the clip , he stated that campuses across the country were being âtaken over by supporters of terrorism,â and stated that Jewish students were being intimidated. âIt was important to come out, show the broader community that there are people who stand against this,â he said.
Mr. Yudelman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Hereâs why antiwar protests havenât flared up at Black colleges like Morehouse.
As President Biden prepares to give graduation remarks this month at Morehouse College in Atlanta, a prestigious historically Black institution, the White House is signaling anxiety about the potential for protests over the war in Gaza.
During a recent visit to Atlanta, Vice President Kamala Harris stopped to ask the Morehouse student government president about the sentiment on campus about the conflict, how students felt about Mr. Bidenâs visit and what the graduating class would like to hear from him on May 19.
Then, on Friday, the White House dispatched the leader of its public engagement office and one of its most senior Black officials, Stephen K. Benjamin, to the Morehouse campus for meetings to take the temperature of students, faculty members and administrators.
The reasons for concern are clear: Nationwide demonstrations over the war and Mr. Bidenâs approach to it have inflamed more than 60 colleges and universities , stoked tensions within the Democratic Party and created new headaches for his re-election bid.
Yet Mr. Biden appears to be entering a different type of scene at Morehouse.
While anger over the war remains palpable at Morehouse and other historically Black colleges and universities, these campuses have been largely free of turmoil, and tensions are far less evident: no encampments, few loud protests and little sign of Palestinian flags flying from dorm windows.
The reasons stem from political, cultural and socioeconomic differences with other institutions of higher learning. While H.B.C.U.s host a range of political views, domestic concerns tend to outweigh foreign policy in the minds of most students. Many started lower on the economic ladder and are more intently focused on their education and their job prospects after graduation.
At Morehouse â which has a legacy of civil rights protests and is the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.âs alma mater â discontent over the Gaza war has played out in classrooms and auditoriums rather than on campus lawns.
âThis should not be a place that cancels people regardless of if we agree with them,â David Thomas, the Morehouse president, said in an interview on Thursday. Of Mr. Bidenâs visit, he said, âWhether people support the decision or not, they are committed to having it happen on our campus in a way that doesnât undermine the integrity or dignity of the school.â
Some students have held contentious meetings with university leaders and urged them to rescind Mr. Bidenâs invitation, and a small group of faculty members has vowed not to attend commencement. Some alumni wrote a letter expressing worries that student protesters could be punished, noting Morehouseâs history of âcelebrating student activists long after they have graduated.â
But the college might appear politically safer for the president to visit than many others. Morehouse is a custom-bound place where undergraduates traditionally do not step on the grass in the heart of campus until they receive their degrees. Alumni view commencement as a distinguished event not only for students but also for scores of family and community members â making it a less likely venue for a major disruption.
Mr. Biden chose to speak at Morehouse after the White House had received invitations from an array of colleges. It will be the third time in four years he has addressed graduates of a historically Black institution; he has also spoken at commencement for one military academy each year.
Among those lobbying Mr. Biden to come to Morehouse was Cedric Richmond, a member of the collegeâs class of 1995, who ran Mr. Bidenâs public engagement office and is now a senior adviser at the Democratic National Committee .
Mr. Richmond, who has a nephew at Morehouse, predicted Mr. Biden would speak about the high expectations of the collegeâs alumni, promote his record of reducing Black unemployment and narrowing the racial wealth gap, and deliver familiar exhortations about perseverance.
Mr. Richmond does not think Mr. Biden will face protests.
âThe Morehouse College graduation, at least as I remember it, is a very solemn event,â he said. âYou have almost 500 African American males walking across that stage, whose parents and grandparents sacrificed and those students worked their butts off to, one, get into Morehouse, and two, to graduate. Thatâs a very significant day. And Iâm just not sure whether students or protesters are going to interfere with that solemn moment.â
Vice President Harris, who graduated from Howard University, another historically Black institution, is engaged in her own virtual tour of such colleges. A congratulatory video she recorded will be played for graduates at 44 H.B.C.U.s; she is often introduced as a surprise guest and greeted with cheers.
In Atlanta last month, Ms. Harris asked the Morehouse student government president, Mekhi Perrin, what approach Mr. Biden should take in his address.
âI think really she was just trying to gain an idea of what exactly studentsâ issues were with his coming, if any at all,â Mr. Perrin said. âAnd what would kind of shift that narrative.â
Mr. Biden has been trailed by Gaza protesters for months. The last time he spoke at a four-year college campus was in January, when demonstrators interrupted him at least 10 times during a rally at George Mason University in Virginia.
Morehouseâs traditions are strong. Dr. King said it was a place where he had advanced his understanding of nonviolent protest and moral leadership â which current Morehouse students say they take seriously.
âI feel like the protests do need to come out, because if you donât see students advocating for what they believe in, then the change that theyâre advocating for will never come about,â said Benjamin Bayliss, a Morehouse junior. Looking toward the statue of Dr. King in front of the chapel named for the civil rights leader, he added, âYou really feel the weight of what King did and the fire of the torch that he lit that we have to carry on.â
Yet even as some students feel compelled to protest, outside factors can shape their decisions. Roughly 75 percent of students at H.B.C.U.s, including 50 percent of Morehouse students, are eligible for the Pell Grant , a federal aid program for low-income students. More than 80 percent of Morehouse students receive some form of financial aid. In the Class of 2024, nearly a third of graduates will be the first in their family to receive a bachelorâs degree.
Some students at Black colleges also may decide against protesting because of family pressure , which amplifies the importance of securing their degrees.
âYour student body at Columbia is very different than the student body at, say, Dillard,â said Walter Kimbrough, who spent a decade as president of Dillard University, a historically Black institution in New Orleans. âIt doesnât mean that people arenât concerned. But they understand that they have some different kinds of stakes.â
The stakes are also high for Mr. Biden, whose standing with Black voters has softened ahead of Novemberâs presidential election. Young people are less enthusiastic about voting at all â partly because of Mr. Bidenâs handling of the Gaza war, but also because they are unhappy with the choice between him and former President Donald J. Trump.
âI think itâs really just picking the lesser of two evils,â said Freddrell Rhea Green II, a Morehouse freshman. âAnything better than Donald Trump, a madman, a quote unquote tyrant, is better for me.â
âJoe Biden is probably a very nice person,â said Samuel Livingston, an associate professor of Africana studies at Morehouse. âBut niceness is not the level of leadership that we need. We need ethical leadership. And continuing to support the aiding, abetting and the stripping of Palestinian land, from Palestinian people in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, is not ethical.â
Some students, like Auzzy Byrdsell, a senior studying kinesiology and journalism, support their classmatesâ protests but fear a possible response from the police to a crowd of largely Black young men.
âDo we get tear-gassed?â said Mr. Byrdsell, the editor in chief of The Maroon Tiger, the schoolâs student newspaper. âDo we get arrested? That would not be the greatest look for a Morehouse College graduation.â
Senator Raphael Warnock of Georgia, a 1991 Morehouse alumnus, said that he hoped Mr. Biden would highlight his record and his agenda â but that there was little the president could say about the Gaza conflict to assuage his critics on campus.
âWhile what he says is important,â Mr. Warnock said, trying to put himself in the shoes of student protesters, âI think much more important is what he does in the future.â

Pennsylvaniaâs governor leans into the campus fight over antisemitism.
A few hours after Columbia University canceled its main commencement ceremony following weeks of pro-Palestinian student protests, Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania was in his office in Harrisburg, taking stock of the ways he sees universities letting students down.
âOur colleges, in many cases, are failing young people,â he said in an interview this week. âFailing to teach information that is necessary to form thoughtful perspectives. They are willing to let certain forms of hate pass by and condemn others more strongly.â
Mr. Shapiro â the leader of a pre-eminent battleground state, a rising Democrat and a proudly observant Jew â has also emerged as one of his partyâs most visible figures denouncing the rise in documented antisemitism after the Hamas-led Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
And at a moment of growing Democratic anger and unease over how Israel is conducting its devastating military response, Mr. Shapiro, 50 â who has no obligation to talk about foreign policy â has not shied away from expressing support for the country while criticizing its right-wing government.
Plunging into a subject that has inflamed and divided many Americans carries risk for an ambitious Democrat from a politically important state. The politics around both the Gaza war and the protest movement are exceptionally fraught within the Democratic Party , and many of its voters and elected officials have become increasingly critical of Israel.
But Mr. Shapiro has been direct.
Asked if he considered himself a Zionist, he said that he did. When Iran attacked Israel last month, he wrote on social media that Pennsylvania âstands with Israel.â
When the University of Pennsylvaniaâs president struggled before Congress to directly answer whether calling for the genocide of Jews violated the schoolâs rules, Mr. Shapiro said she had failed to show âmoral clarity.â ( She later resigned .) When opponents of the Gaza war picketed an Israeli-style restaurant in Philadelphia known for its falafel and tahini shakes, Mr. Shapiro called the demonstration antisemitic and showed up for lunch.
And as university officials have struggled to define where free speech ends and hate speech begins, a tension upending the final weeks of the school year, Mr. Shapiro has issued stern warnings about their responsibility to protect students from discrimination. The issue hits close to home: On Friday, police cleared an encampment of pro-Palestinian demonstrators off the campus of the University of Pennsylvania. Mr. Shapiro had said it was â past time â for Penn to do so.
âIt should not be hardâ
In the interview, Mr. Shapiro stressed that he did not believe all encampments or demonstrators were antisemitic â not âby any stretch.â But he suggested that on some campuses, antisemitic speech was treated differently than other kinds of hate speech.
âIf you had a group of white supremacists camped out and yelling racial slurs every day, that would be met with a different response than antisemites camped out, yelling antisemitic tropes,â he said.
Law enforcement officials and advocacy groups have tracked a rise in antisemitic, anti-Muslim and anti-Arab acts in recent months.
Speaking after an appearance at a Holocaust Remembrance Day ceremony on Monday, Mr. Shapiro emphasized that âwe should be universal in our condemnation of antisemitism, Islamophobia and all forms of hate.â
While there is room for ânuanceâ in foreign policy discussions, he said, âit should not be hard for anyone on the political left or right to call out antisemitism.â
In a new survey , Mr. Shapiro, a former state attorney general, had a job approval rating of 64 percent, with just 19 percent of Pennsylvanians saying they disapproved.
He has long emphasized bipartisanship and prioritized nonideological issues like rapidly reopening a stretch of Interstate 95 after a collapse. And his own religious observance has helped him connect with people of other faiths in a state where Jews are estimated to make up about 3 percent of the electorate.
âI make it home Friday night for Sabbath dinner because family and faith ground me,â he said in a campaign ad.
Many Jews in Pennsylvania hope that he will become the first Jewish president. On that subject, he deflects as skillfully as any potential White House aspirant: He laughs or insists that he loves and is focused on his current job.
âI am very humbled that people have taken note of our work,â he said. âI sort of dismiss those comments because theyâre not helpful to the work Iâm trying to do every day as governor, the voice Iâm trying to have both here in the commonwealth and across the country to root out hate and to speak with moral clarity.â
He added, âItâs certainly not helpful when it comes to our top political priority, which is to re-elect President Biden.â
âJosh is front and centerâ
The Mideast war, which has killed more than 34,000 people in Gaza, according to local health authorities, has fueled a broad and significant protest movement.
But on college campuses, there are sharp debates over when demonstrations against Israel and its treatment of Palestinians veer into antisemitic targeting of Jewish students and institutions.
To Mr. Shapiro, the distinction is clear: Criticism of Israeli policies is fair game. âAffixing to every Jew the policies of Israel,â he said, is not.
Mr. Shapiro said he felt a âunique responsibilityâ to speak out both because he leads a state founded on a vision of religious tolerance , and because he is a âproud American Jew.â
Indeed, his Jewish identity is intertwined with his public persona to a degree rarely seen in American politicians.
He is a Jewish day school alumnus who has featured challah in his campaign advertising and alludes to a collection of Jewish ethics in his speeches. In recent weeks, he offered an under-the-weather 76ers player matzo ball soup and celebrated the end of Passover with Martinâs Potato Rolls, a Pennsylvania delicacy.
âItâs not an easy time to be Jewish, and to be a Jewish politician,â said Sharon Levin, a former teacher of Mr. Shapiroâs. âJosh is front and center.â
Mr. Shapiro has also spent significant time in Israel, proposing to his wife in Jerusalem . Asked if, like Mr. Biden , he considers himself a Zionist, he confirmed that he did.
âI am pro-Israel,â he said. âI am pro-the idea of a Jewish homeland, a Jewish state, and I will certainly do everything in my power to ensure that Israel is strong and Israel is fortified and will exist for generations.â
He also supports a two-state solution , is a longtime critic of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and said he mourned âthe loss of life in Gaza.â
That approach is common among elected Democrats. But it is clearly at odds with the campus protests, which are often explicitly anti-Zionist.
The issue is virtually certain to divide Democrats on future presidential debate stages.
For now, Mr. Shapiro has not drawn the kind of backlash from the left that some other Israel supporters have, in part because he is not voting on foreign policy. And while another Pennsylvania Democrat, Senator John Fetterman, has sometimes engaged provocatively with pro-Palestinian demonstrators, Mr. Shapiro has a more measured, lawyerly style.
âItâs critically important that we remove hate from the conversation and allow people to freely express their ideas, whether I agree with their ideas or not,â he said.
Tensions over Israel
Some Muslim leaders say Mr. Shapiro has not found the right balance in his post-Oct. 7 comments.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations in Philadelphia said in a statement that two of its board members had skipped an iftar dinner he hosted, arguing that he had âcreated much harm and hurt among Muslim, Arab and pro-Palestinian Pennsylvanians.â
âThe governor, like the White House, is not fully able to see the deep level of resentment that exists about his stances,â Ahmet Tekelioglu, the executive director of that chapter, said in an interview. (In a statement on Friday, he also criticized Mr. Shapiroâs call to disband the Penn encampment.) âThe governor has lost the trust of many in the Muslim-American community in Pennsylvania that had long considered him a friend.â
Mr. Shapiro, whose team has clashed with CAIR before, replied, âIâm not going to let one press release from one group that has its own agenda take away from the close, strong relationship I have with the Muslim community.â
âWe have tried to create, at the residence and across Pennsylvania, a place where all faiths feel welcomed,â he said.
State Representative Tarik Khan, a Philadelphia-area Democrat who is Muslim, did attend the iftar. It included time for prayer and a âlegit dinner,â he said, rather than âhors dâoeuvres and get the hell out.â
âAt a time when thereâs a lot of trauma, sometimes the easy thing is to do nothing,â Mr. Khan said. âIf he didnât care about our community, he wouldnât have spent that time.â
Growing expectations
Mr. Shapiro faces different pressures from the Jewish community.
In the Philadelphia area, many know him or his family personally â or feel as if they do â and in some cases expect him to speak out frequently in support of Israel. But, said Jonathan Scott Goldman, the chair of the Pennsylvania Jewish Coalition, his job is to lead the whole state.
âJewish people want to and do claim Josh as their own,â Mr. Goldman said. âHe knows heâs not just a Jewish governor. Heâs a governor, and heâs the governor of all Pennsylvanians.â
In the interview, Mr. Shapiro reiterated that he was focused on that job.
But asked if â broadly speaking â he believed the country could elect a Jewish president in his lifetime, he replied, âSpeaking broadly, absolutely.â
âIt doesnât mean that our nation is free of bias,â he said. âIf youâre asking me, can the country rise above that, and elect someone that might look different than them or worship different than them? The answer is yes.â

After arrests at Arizona State, the campus police chief is put on leave.
Arizona State University has put the chief of its campus police department on paid administrative leave, two weeks after dozens of people were arrested at a pro-Palestinian encampment there.
The decision came after complaints were filed related to the actions of the chief, Michael Thompson, in late April, when the campus police broke up the demonstration. School officials said on Friday that the universityâs general counsel was reviewing the complaints, but they did not provide further details about the allegations or who had filed them.
At least 20 Arizona State students were among the people arrested after they refused to leave the campus. The students were temporarily suspended, and have since filed a lawsuit against the Arizona Board of Regents, which governs the stateâs public university system. The suit, filed in Federal District Court in Arizona, argues that the school violated their First Amendment rights.
There were also reports that the police had removed some womenâs hijabs during the arrests. Those reports were being reviewed by the general counselâs office, the university said in a statement last week.
Azza Abuseif, executive director for Arizonaâs branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said in a statement on April 29 that she was calling for a full investigation.
David Chami, a lawyer representing four of the women, as well as many of the students who were arrested and suspended, also pointed to video reportedly showing Chief Thompson , in plainclothes, cutting through a tent in the encampment as it was being cleared out.
University officials did not respond to questions about whether those reports were related to Chief Thompson being placed on leave. The assistant chief of the schoolâs police department, John Thompson, is now serving as acting chief. The two men are not related, according to the school.

A U.C.L.A. meeting to consider formally rebuking the chancellor ends without a vote.
The Academic Senate at the University of California, Los Angeles, failed to come to a vote on Friday on whether to formally rebuke the schoolâs chancellor, Gene Block, after pro-Palestinian demonstrators were attacked for hours last week without police intervention and more than 200 protesters were later arrested as their encampment was dismantled .
The virtual meeting was attended by several hundred members of the Senate, which includes all faculty members who meet certain criteria. Only members of a smaller group known as the Legislative Assembly, which consists of representatives selected by campus departments, would have been allowed to vote on a no-confidence resolution and a censure resolution.
A vote of no confidence in Mr. Block would have been the harsher of the two measures.
âFor many of us, we feel strongly that the actions and inaction of our chancellor warrant a vote of no confidence,â said Carlos Santos, an associate professor of social welfare who represents the Luskin School of Public Affairs in the Assembly, before the meeting. âWe feel strongly that itâs critical that we go down in history as centering our studentsâ safety, first and foremost.â
But after more than three hours of discussion, much of it devoted to parliamentary procedure, the meeting ended without a vote. The group will take up the issue again at its next meeting, on May 16.
Mr. Block, 75, did not comment on the resolutions on Friday. He has served as chancellor of U.C.L.A. since 2007 and has already said that he will step down at the end of July. But the vote could still serve as an important indicator of how faculty members at the elite public university feel about free speech and the campus climate in a polarized era.
On Friday, dozens of speakers recounted rushing to help students who had been beaten, their eyes streaming from chemical agents. Medical school faculty members described hearing from medical students and residents who had been attacked as they tried to treat injured protesters.
Many emphasized that a vote of no confidence was simply that: an indication that Mr. Block had lost the backing of the faculty, and a sign to the incoming administration that faculty members would not hesitate to speak up on behalf of students. It was not, they said, a referendum on the views of the protesters themselves.
Relatively few speakers opposed the measures, though a couple voiced concerns about antisemitism among protesters at the encampment.
If the Senate passes one or both resolutions, U.C.L.A. will join a list of universities whose faculty and staff have united with protesters to rebuke their administratorsâ handling of pro-Palestinian demonstrations.
Earlier this week, the Academic Senate at the University of Southern California voted to censure its president . The University Senate at California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt, took a vote of no confidence last month in its president, Tom Jackson Jr., after law enforcement officers in riot gear responded to activists who took over an administration building .
Frustration with Mr. Block has mounted since the night of April 30, when a large group of counterprotesters confronted a pro-Palestinian encampment that had sprawled across a campus quad days earlier.
Administrators initially took a more hands-off approach to the encampment than other universities, citing University of California policy that law enforcement was to be called âonly if absolutely necessary to protect the physical safety of our campus community.â
But on April 30, the sixth day of the encampment, Mr. Block declared the site illegal and warned protesters to leave. He cited some violent incidents between protesters and counterprotesters, as well as examples of pro-Palestinian demonstrators blocking access to parts of the campus.
Counterprotesters arrived later that night and sprayed students with pepper spray, shot fireworks into the encampment and used metal pipes and other objects to attack protesters. Police and security officers who were present for parts of the melee didnât intervene for hours, and no arrests have been made in the attacks.
The next night, administrators authorized police officers from three agencies to clear the encampment.
Criticism from members of the campus community, as well as state and local officials, was swift. Mr. Block called it âa dark chapter in our campusâs history.â
He subsequently established an office of campus safety, with a former police chief at its head, to oversee the universityâs police department. He also brought in outside consultants to investigate what happened during the attacks.
Until then, âWe thought the university was handling it great,â said Matt Barreto, a professor of political science and Chicano studies who has been acting as a spokesman for a faculty group that has been supporting the protesters. So the sudden change in approach and in particular, what Mr. Barreto characterized as an overly violent police response, was jarring.
Some Jewish organizations, however, were upset by videos of protesters blocking students from accessing walkways or buildings if they did not renounce Zionism. Jewish Federation Los Angeles said the climate had become hostile to Jewish students and that there had been a âhorrifying escalation of antisemitism.â

Two universities cancel speeches by the U.S. ambassador to the U.N.
In the span of less than a week, two universities have rescinded commencement speaking invitations to Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the American ambassador to the United Nations, because of student opposition to the United Statesâ support of Israel during the war in Gaza.
Xavier University, an historically Black institution in New Orleans, withdrew its invitation to Ms. Thomas-Greenfield earlier this week, saying in a statement that âa number of studentsâ had objected to her giving a commencement address. The president of Xavier, Reynold Verret, indicated that he was concerned about the possibility of disruptions during the graduation ceremony this weekend, and came to the conclusion that Xavier could no longer host her â a situation he said was âregrettable.â
Mr. Verret added that he looked forward to having Ms. Thomas-Greenfield, one of only two Black women to hold the U.N. ambassador post, visit the school and speak âin the future.â
The University of Vermont announced last week that Ms. Thomas-Greenfield would not be speaking there, agreeing to a key demand by student demonstrators who set up an encampment on the campus in Burlington. The schoolâs president, Suresh Garimella, notified the student body last week that Ms. Thomas-Greenfield would not speak at graduation, and wrote, âI see you and hear you.â
A spokesman for Ms. Thomas-Greenfield said in a statement that the ambassador looked forward âto continuing to engage with young people on campusesâ and elsewhere, and noted that she had recently spoken to high school students in Pennsylvania.
Opponents of Israelâs military campaign in Gaza, which has claimed the lives of more than 30,000 people, according to Palestinian health authorities, have focused some of their ire on Ms. Thomas-Greenfield because she has led the U.S. efforts in the Security Council to block several resolutions calling for a cease-fire. She argued against the resolutions on the grounds that Hamas, whose Oct. 7 attack on Israel killed 1,200 people, had not agreed to release the hostages it took that day.
Even so, in March the United States abstained from voting on one cease-fire resolution, a signal of the Biden administrationâs growing displeasure with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahuâs handling of Israelâs war efforts. That abstention allowed the resolution to pass the Security Council, breaking a five-month impasse.

Jerry Seinfeld, a strong supporter of Israel, will speak at Duke University.
Duke University will have a big-name graduation speaker on Sunday: Jerry Seinfeld.
Two of Mr. Seinfeldâs three children have attended Duke, where he and his wife, Jessica Seinfeld, are active boosters.
But they are also known for something more controversial these days: their support for Israel. Mr. Seinfeld has become a public voice against antisemitism and in support of Jews in Israel and the United States. In December, he traveled to Tel Aviv to meet with hostagesâ families, soberly recounting afterward the missile attack that greeted him during the trip.
Ms. Seinfeld, a cookbook author, attracted attention when she promoted on Instagram a counterprotest â which she said she had helped bankroll â at the University of California, Los Angeles, where clashes with pro-Palestinian demonstrators turned violent. In 2018, the family visited a West Bank paramilitary training camp that had become a tourist attraction.
Some students have objected to Mr. Seinfeldâs appearance at Duke.
The Rev. Dr. Stefan Weathers Sr., an ordained minister in the American Baptist Church who is being awarded a Ph.D. in divinity, recently wrote a letter to the university asking that Mr. Seinfeld be replaced, citing Mr. Seinfeldâs ongoing and strong support for Israel.
While Dr. Weathers acknowledged in the letter to Dr. Vincent E. Price, Dukeâs president, that the Hamas attacks on Israel were a âhorrific display of hate and inhumanity,â he also argued that Israelâs ongoing retaliation has killed more than 34,000 people.
âWhat has taken place over the past six to seven months can only be described as genocide,â Dr. Weathers wrote. He received a polite, if noncommittal, letter of response from Dr. Price, he said. And despite other questions raised by some pro-Palestinian students, the university has remained supportive of Mr. Seinfeldâs appearance, which it first announced in a video during a Duke basketball game.
A spokesman for Duke did not respond to requests for comment.
Dr. Weathers said during an interview on Friday that he was expecting some kind of a protest Sunday amid the normally polite and genteel Duke gathering, where Mr. Seinfeld is also scheduled to receive an honorary degree.
âThere wonât be a business-as-usual commencement taking place,â he said, promising to âlift up our voices any way we can.â

Lo Bosworth says Audrina Patridge feud on ‘The Hills’ Season 4 was fabricated: ‘We were totally friends’Â

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.
Hereâs the Lo-down.
Lo Bosworth says her feud with Audrina Patridge on âThe Hillsâ Season 4 was entirely fabricated to fit a premeditated narrative she wasnât aware of.
âThe season of âThe Hillsâ where Audrina and I were at odds, when they shot that season, I had no idea that we were at odds,â Bosworth tells Page Sixâs âVirtual Reali-Teaâ podcast while promoting her partnership with BIC Soleil Escape.
âI thought we were friends,â she adds, âand then the edit came out and the edit was not a very flattering edit of me.â
During the fourth installment of MTVâs glossy docuseries â known for its cinematic production and carefully crafted storylines â Bosworth, now 37, and Patridge, now 39, seemingly clashed after moving in with fellow friend and castmate Lauren Conrad .
Bosworth says editors were able to create onscreen tension between the women by cutting the show âtogether with voiceoversâ and clips of her âstaring off into spaceâ that made their friendly interactions appear contentious.
âYou donât know going into those shows, when youâre young, that they already have the entire season mapped out on a wall with Post-It notes of the entire storyline with the arcs and this personâs going to do this and this personâs going to do that,â says Bosworth, who starred on âLaguna Beachâ before graduating to Conradâs spinoff, âThe Hills,â in the mid-2000s.
The Love Wellness founder â who launched her feminine care brand in 2016 after retiring from the unscripted space more than a decade ago â even recalls producers setting up multiple camera angles for the same scene to capture the perfect shot to tell a certain story.
âOn our show, they would basically have us sit down for a scene, they would shoot it and then they would reposition the cameras. And they would do it five or six times and they would do it so ⊠they would get you to say what they wanted you to say,â she says.
âThey were doing it so ultimately that they could get the cut they wanted to fit the narrative that they had planned.â
Unfortunately, the antipathy displayed on camera infiltrated Bosworthâs dynamic with Patridge.
âI think, unfortunately, for her, that created a sense of, âOh, we must not be friends in real life,ââ the entrepreneur tells us.

âThat season, in real life, we were totally friends and the show comes out and it changes your real-life relationship.â
Bosworth says she has discussed this specific byproduct of the industry with other reality TV vets, including âReal Housewives of New York Cityâ alum Bethenny Frankel.
âI hear that so often with other people who are on reality television. I was talking to Bethenny Frankel about exactly that the other day,â she says. âThe edit that you get can affect your real-life relationships after the fact.â
While Bosworthâs reality TV career is behind her, she teases that a âLaguna Beachâ reunion is in the works as the iconic predecessor to âThe Hillsâ gears up for its 20th anniversary in September.
âI think that everybody who was on the first season of âLaguna Beach,â if there is a reunion, has agreed to do it, which I’m really excited by,â she raves.
âI think if I had been asked a couple of years ago, I may have been more nervous to do it. But I think at this point in my life, you know, for everyone watching, it’s the 20th anniversary of the show. For me, it’s my high school 20th anniversary.â
Until then, Bosworth is happy to emphasize the importance of self-care â which, for her, includes winding down with BIC Soleil Escapeâs â5 Senses Shave Kit.â
âIt creates this like incredible sensory experience in the bath, which I think really elevates like your shower, bath or shaving experience,â she says of the product, which features products â such as scented razors and ingredients for a lavender mocktail â that appeal to all five senses.
âWeâre really trying to create like a very immersive spa like experience for your shave.â
