Sacramento State's unique approach helps bring peaceful end to campus protest

Earlier this week, Sacramento State University President Luke Wood oversaw a peaceful end to a campus protest over the Israel-Hamas war, one of the many that have taken place at universities nationwide in recent weeks.

Sacramento State's encampment came down, not with violence, but with dialogue.

"We want to take the time to thank Luke Wood for not following suit after other administrations, and not calling Sacramento police," one student said in a news conference Wednesday.

"That's what a lot of students are really looking for, is to take a moral stance about what is taking place in the world," Wood told CBS News.

The 42-year-old Wood, who says he tries to lead with empathy, grew up in foster care, suffered bouts of hunger and homelessness, and received his degrees at the school he now oversees.
