Dartmouth College canceled all arts and science classes today after some students were targeted by online threats after a protest against homophobia, sexual assault and racism disrupted an on-campus event.

Classes were being replaced with lectures and teach-ins designed to unite students, faculty and staff to discuss Dartmouth’s commitment to “fostering debate that promotes respect for individuals, civil and engaged discourse and the value of diverse opinions,” the Hanover, New Hampshire-based college said in a statement on its website.
