Closed petition Allow university students graduating in summer to have an in-person graduation
Closed on
Allow universities to go ahead with socially distanced graduations in the summer so students have a way to celebrate their hard work throughout university instead of it being postponed or cancelled.
Students have worked really hard throughout the pandemic, including students nurses, doctors and teachers and others in their studies and having a graduation is one of the only events we get where we can celebrate our achievements and we feel this can still be done as a socially distanced event with masks and just graduates rather then whole families or limited numbers.
