The University of Southern California made an announcement on Saturday night regarding the temporary closure of its University Park campus. The closure was initiated due to a disturbance that prompted the university to take precautionary measures.

According to the university's official statement, the University Park Campus is currently closed to all individuals except for residents of the campus. This decision was made in the interest of ensuring the safety and security of those within the university community.

Recent events have seen ongoing pro-Palestinian protests taking place on the university grounds. These protests have added to the tensions surrounding the campus environment, leading to the need for increased vigilance and security measures.

The closure of the University Park Campus is a temporary measure aimed at addressing the current situation and allowing for the necessary steps to be taken to maintain order and safety on the premises. The university administration is closely monitoring the developments and will provide updates as the situation evolves.

Students, faculty, and staff are advised to adhere to the university's directives and cooperate with campus authorities during this period of closure. The university remains committed to upholding a safe and inclusive environment for all members of its community.
