(WIS) &#8211; Student leaders at South Carolina State University received a standing ovation at the school\u2019s board of trustees meeting on Thursday. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\">The meeting marked <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wistv.com\/2026\/04\/29\/lt-gov-pamela-evette-no-longer-speaking-sc-state-commencement-president-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" title=\"https:\/\/www.wistv.com\/2026\/04\/29\/lt-gov-pamela-evette-no-longer-speaking-sc-state-commencement-president-says\/\">the first since SC State elected not to have Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette as its commencement speaker on Wednesday.<\/a> The decision came after protests by students on the Orangeburg campus, as well as safety concerns for the May 8 commencement. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\">It was also the first time the board, including Chairman Douglas Gantt, addressed the public about the controversy. Gantt said he was the one who organized bringing Evette to commencement, adding that university president Alexander Conyers didn\u2019t deserve backlash over the decision. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\">\u201cAll I\u2019m trying to say is&#8230;for the president, and all he\u2019s done for the university, did not deserve the ridicule because he\u2019s only asked to do what the chairman is asking him to do,\u201d Gantt said Thursday. \u201cAnd that is walking into rooms to help us get funding. Not just for the kids now, but for the kids who are to come later. That\u2019s the whole purpose of having this role.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\">Evette, who is also running for governor as a Republican, said she received an invitation in December to speak at commencement. News of the decision broke Tuesday, sparking protests by students who claim the lieutenant governor\u2019s political leanings do not align with the state\u2019s only publicly funded historically Black university.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\">She also referred to student protestors multiple times as a \u201cwoke mob,\u201d adding Thursday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wistv.com\/2026\/04\/30\/watch-lt-gov-evette-says-she-wont-apologize-calling-sc-state-protestors-woke-mob\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" title=\"https:\/\/www.wistv.com\/2026\/04\/30\/watch-lt-gov-evette-says-she-wont-apologize-calling-sc-state-protestors-woke-mob\/\">that she didn\u2019t intend to apologize for the term.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\">Gantt, meanwhile, argued that there is a need to work across political, racial and gender lines for the betterment of SC State. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\">It\u2019s unclear if SC State will name a replacement speaker for commencement. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\"><i><b>This is a developing story and will be updated. <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\"><i>Feel more informed, prepared, and connected with WIS.
