The university was the one that organized the event in the first place. The university called the police and tried to get the riot under control so that they could continue with the event. The police said that it was too dangerous for the event to continue, so the university was forced to cancel it. Clearly, because of this they should be defunded! |

I'm not into conspiracy theories but this is entirely believable and the mounting evidence against Jesse Arreguin (the mayor) is pretty convincing and not helping him at all I'm inclined to believe it |

the mayor isnt the university and his actions dont discredit their academic accomplishments lol |
