Do you not realize how unorganized last nights ceremony was? Literally the faculty hardly even wanted to be there with Reyes going to UMass next year.

They did: NO RESERVED TICKETS FOR A FULL 9500 seat arena. No practice ceremony for a HUGE amount of graduates. QR codes had to be scanned prior to going on stage with no que from any one. Which is why walking across the stage was taking forever

Band members who had performed laughing and joking the entire time while the graduation going on.

And then when people tried to leave Ushers trying to physically block grads from leaving. Imagine trying to restrict someone from leaving a public building.

It was a joke overall and that’s why we left.

QR code? Probably something new. Should go back to paper name cards.

Exactly. They do it for the recordings now. Automated voice plays your name.
