At what is supposed to be a celebratory and joyous time of the year, there is instead a lot of frustration and bitterness on the USC campus right now.

We caught up with Jonathan Park ... he's a USC junior majoring in applied mathematics, and also happens to be the managing digital editor of USC's newspaper, the Daily Trojan.  

We asked him whether he's seen or heard of any violent incidents.

Were the protests or camps disruptive to student life on USC's campus?

Park says that after surveying a broad sampling of USC students, on both sides of the Israel-Palestinian divide, most people blamed campus tensions on university leadership.

Parks says there's a sense of resignation and disappointment among seniors over the cancellation of the main stage graduation.

Final exams and the Spring semester will wrap up on USC by May 8th.
