After Speaking with the Dean on behalf the the student body, the SBA is suggesting anyone with a personal issue with graduation time please contact Dean Salkin directly. She is offering her time to help so each and every student can be accommodated for graduation. She is aware of our concerns and has explained, extensively to the SBA Vice President the reasons why graduation is when it is and it is not for the reasons we thought- her daughter's graduation, which is contrary to initial information conveyed to the rest of the SBA board. If you cannot get a hold of Dean Salkin, please contact Marie Fuzia or Alanna McGovern who has had an extensive meeting with the Dean and can help explain the totality of the circumstances and how this, amongst all options and the way all other schools handle graduation in general, is the most reasonable and accommodating time and place.


Let us enjoy graduation and the Dean's door is always open to voice your concerns and let your thoughts known. Again if you have a personal issue or problem, please email, call, or stop by to see Dean Salkin.

I just got off the phone with the administration people and it turns out the whole rumor about the daughter thing was completely wrong which feels both confusing and honestly a bit of a relief because it means we can actually talk about the real scheduling logistics now. Please just reach out to the office directly if you are still feeling stuck because they told me they are really trying to listen even if the process is moving slower than I wanted.

I really did not think this would gain this much steam when I first hit publish but here we are and honestly it feels pretty surreal to see how many people actually care about this. It is funny how things snowball because now that everyone is talking I guess we have to actually see what happens next with the office.

Totally need the 12pm start time. My parents are driving in from way out of state and need to get back on the road by evening.

12pm works best for my family. Flying them in is already expensive enough so avoiding an extra night in a hotel would really help.

I also prefer the 12 pm graduation time, as I have people traveling from out of the country and out of state to attend my graduation.
