WILLIAMSBURG — Protesters in opposition of Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin disrupted the College of William & Mary’s Charter Day Ceremony on Friday afternoon, Feb. 11.

During the ceremony, which took place at the Kaplan Arena, located on the University’s campus, a small group of protesters began shouting, chanting and holding up a banner that read, “G. Youngkin is a Bigot!” just as Chancellor Robert M. Gates and Rector John Littel were about to confer an honorary degree on Youngkin.
