De Montfort University has proposed that, as of 2012, the venue for the end of term graduation ceremony will be altered from De Montfort Hall to The Curve Theatre. We who have signed this petition do not agree that this change is in the best interests of the students, and therefore wish for the historic De Montfort Hall to remain as the setting of what could be the pinnacle of our academic lives.

I really dont want my family to have to sit in a tiny theatre when the hall is right there. Not fair on us at all.

DMH feels special. The Curve feels like a corporate office. Wrong move.

De Montfort Hall is tradition for a reason. Don't ruin our big day by cramming us into a smaller space just to save a few quid.

Ridiculous decision. We worked for years to get that stage moment at the Hall. Fix it.

The Curve is just too small for this. It wont feel like a real graduation at all. Keep it at the Hall ffs.
