- The Sun God Festival scheduled for this weekend at UC San Diego has been cancelled, according to school administrators.
The 40-year tradition draws thousands of students for an evening of live music, art, and dancing. The announcement was made Thursday evening.
"Due to ongoing protest activity adjacent to Library Walk, our campus security resources that would otherwise be available to ensure the safety and security of the people participating in Sun God must be deployed elsewhere to support the overall security of our students, faculty, staff and visitors, and ensure the continuity of operations and the fulfillment of our academic mission. Unfortunately, this means we cannot simultaneously provide the necessary security oversight for the Sun God Festival," reads a statement issued by UC San Diego.

The festival has third party security with funds fully allocated already. The festival does not use campus security. Sad excuse given by the administration to set students against each other.
non students trespassing causing actual students to lose their traditional celebration....where are the normal law abiding leaders
Nice green tents. Those look suspiciously similar to the ones at Columbia and UCLA. Almost like someone is funding them🤔
Organized by The People's Forum Organization - based in New York ?????
Behold, the power of the sun has been blocked by the eclipse of warfare activists .
No to cease fire !! it must be Finished , or it will come back again and again ,
Your tuition also funds the Festival, and now you paid for not having it.

Dumb protests what's the point nobody cares😅😅
They are smart, young people who have a right to protest, it's called freedom of speech. Who is dumb is you.
Of course, you of all people don't care about genocide. The life of gazans are miniscule to people like you who only care about "their own"
Silly
All the school’s have to do is agree to visit divestment…
THAT IS ALL.
Why is ONE ETHNO-STATE causing so much trouble here and around the world!??
All colleges have financial portfolios. and most have them listed to some degree. You are missing the point, occupying and screaming and shouting to get ones way is not how we do it here. Where are you from a 3rd world shit hole?
There is no reason why anyone should do what a bunch of whiny NPCs demand.
If they want to help Gaza, they can go there and find out how wonderful the Hamas government they elected treats useful idiots.
