So something unusual happened at Stanford’s graduation. When Google CEO Sundar Pichai came up to speak, some students booed and even walked out. The protest was about Google’s ties to government projects like Project Nimbus and concerns about how big tech is being used.
Now this raises a real question.
Was that the right place to protest, or should graduation have stayed focused on celebrating students?
On one hand, people have the right to speak up. On the other, moments like graduation don’t come twice.
What do you think?
Were the students justified, or did they cross a line?

If not there then where. That was the only moment they had that much attention
I feel bad for the students that just wanted a normal graduation without drama
This is going to keep happening. Younger people are more willing to challenge authority publicly now
