"opinion"
What is someone had to go to the bathroom "in the middle"?
Why is it "overt criticism" by leaving before he speaks but not speaking out against it before he speaks? Any speaking against Pence being invited would by its very nature be "directly to the institution" that made the decision to have him there. One of the complaints was that staff and the student body didn't have much say in it at all. Fair or not that is a "directly to the institution".
So what is the difference other than Pence saw a few people walk out.
Should the ones who did not applaud be punished? What if they stayed and played on their phones the whole time and didn't give him the attention? If they had booed?
Where do you draw the line on "criticism" that should be punished?

Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
