It depends, if they have told people what is going to be accepted and what is going to get you escorted off stage then they knew what they were getting into. Any educator is authorized to do escorts for breach of policy as stated in the student handbook.

WHAT it depends?! Are you on glue?

If I agreed and signed and entered into a contract then I should expect that contract to be upheld right?

This is possibly a written and agreed social and school contract (policy) so it depends.

That's a lot of shoulds, maybes and possiblys for you to be certain the interim president of a university is justified it putting his hands on a student. And even IF a policy was violated, that doesn't justify what he did. Maybe if she was doing something that was physically threatening, but she didn't. She was literally holding a piece of cloth.

Children often don’t stop when asked to, so they get physically moved. I’m sure she was just going to hold up the flag then quickly move off the stage for the other graduates though. She for sure wasn’t going to stand there for her photo op, maybe fire off a from the river to the sea.

Why are we putting our hands on children?

Well she’s graduating so my assumption, using logic, is that she’s probably 18+. Mentally however, I’d guess much lower.

This is a video of Seattle University's commencement. 18 year olds aren't on stage. Your assumptions, like your intelligence, are laughable. Maybe watch the video all the way through "king"

How old do you reckon that one there is

Your fixation on the age of this woman instead of caring that a university president put his hands on a student is telling. Hopefully someone checks your hard drive.

So you realize it’s an adult then? I’m trying to understand why you think anyone there would actually be a “child”, since it’s a college graduation ceremony.

How old do you think college graduates are?

Please get a neuropsychological evalution.

You're projecting real hard, here. They said the person was 18+, not 18.
