Trump, Cabinet shunned at college graduations: 'The campus has become seriously radicalized'
 
By James Varney - The Washington Times - Tuesday, May 21, 2019

President Trump and his Cabinet are speaking rarely at this year’s college graduations, even as the annually lopsided measure of liberal versus conservative commencement speakers seems more balanced than usual.

When they do speak, they are opposed by students such as those who walked out Saturday at Taylor University, a Christian liberal arts school in Indiana, unable to abide Vice President Mike Pence as a speaker at their graduation ceremony.

For most of the past 50 years, presidential speeches at graduations have been a staple of America’s spring landscape. President Barack Obama, for example, gave 24 graduation speeches during his eight-year presidency on campuses large and small.
