John Wayne exhibit at USC to be removed in response to student protests

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- A USC exhibit dedicated to John Wayne is being removed in response to student protests.

Some students have been pushing since last fall to remove the exhibit due to Wayne's history of racist comments but the school initially decided to keep it.

On Friday, school officials announced the exhibit will be moved to the Cinematic Arts Library where it can be studied with proper context.
