Some universities opted to cancel their commencement ceremonies earlier this spring for the safety of their students. DePaul University did have an encampment of protesters on its campus, but it was cleared without incident, and the university went on with its graduation as usual.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m appalled to share that the attack targeted two Jewish students at DePaul who were visibly showing their support for Israel,&rdquo; DePaul President Robert L.

Manuel solicited tips surrounding the incidents from its Department of Public Safety. Additionally, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/law-enforcement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Chicago Police Department<\/a> got involved, and will determine whether the battery will fall under a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/man-in-nyc-arrested-for-a-string-of-attacks-on-women\/\" title=\"Man in NYC arrested for a string of attacks on women\">hate crime<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We are outraged that this occurred on our campus. It is completely unacceptable and a violation of DePaul&rsquo;s values to uphold and care for the dignity of every individual,&rdquo; Manuel went on. &ldquo;We recognize that for a significant portion of our Jewish community, Israel is a core part of their Jewish identity.
