Then on the flip side, it was countered with those that wanted Pence to speak, and that was the vast majority.

For those that felt “unsafe at their own graduation," Pretty sure there was no records of anyone being harmed by Pence during the ceremony?

Yes, a petition with thousands of signatures. I am not aware of any counter petition.
It is not clear at all that a "majority" wanted Pence.  Certainly the majority of the faculty did not.

Who would feel "unsafe"? The whole walk out was coordinated with the administration. There was a pre-arranged signal for the walk out, walkers to be accompanied by police, and a signal for the walk outs return so they could receive their diploma.

On the positive side, this protest has been great publicity for Taylor.  Now it's clear why this school is one of the best in the region, and a head and shoulders above other evangelical based universities.
