WATCH: CTV's The Social celebrates segregation on the basis of race, class and sexual orientation

Hosts of CTV's The Social have made their position clear on whether or not students should voluntarily segregate themselves for additional graduation ceremonies—saying that segregation is a good thing, actually.

The panel unanimously voiced their admiration for the "forward thinking" attitudes of those at Columbia University in New York, who this week announced would be allowing students to segregate themselves based on identity lines during graduation ceremonies.

Columbia notes that "Complementing our school-and University-wide ceremonies, these events provide a more intimate setting for students and guests to gather, incorporate meaningful cultural traditions and celebrate the specific contributions and achievements of their communities."

All ceremonies will be virtual this year, and all students may attend the general ceremony on April 30, regardless of their identity.

One Columbia drop-out said he was "impressed" that Columbia could come up with the idea (see Brown v. Board of Education) saying that he remembered feeling "isolated" along "identity lines."

"I think it's important to recognize that your community, your village, brings you to the graduation stage, and you don't do it along, and a lot of the times it's harder because of how people identify."

The argument mimics that of Columbia, who writes that the events "provide a more intimate setting for students and guests to gather, incorporate meaningful cultural traditions and celebrate the specific contributions and achievements of their communities."

There will be a Native Graduation, Lavender Graduation for the (LGBTQIA+ community), and Asian Graduation, an FLI Graduation  for the "First-generation and/or low income community," a Latinx Graduation, and a Black Graduation.

"It's not segregation, it's emphasizing and celebrating where you come from," said another panelist.
