The signatures on this petition represent those in the class of 2011, who have spent two years at Dartington and their third in Falmouth. We believe that University College Falmouth should reconsider there choice to stage our graduation in the Princess Pavilions, in September 2011. We are asking our university to take into consideration the feelings of these students and consider staging our graduation in the great hall, Dartington Estate, a place that we feel we have more of a connection with, having spent 2 years of study there. We believe that as a class we should be able to graduate in a way that we will feel happy with. We believe that we should be able to have a choice in how we graduate.
I was just looking at the calendar and thinking about how much time we actually spent at Dartington compared to these new spaces they want to drop us into. I have been emailing the administration office every afternoon and honestly the silence is getting pretty loud but I keep refreshing my inbox anyway because we really do deserve to end this somewhere that feels like home.

I really did not think this would take off like it has and it is honestly so strange to see people actually agreeing with me about the estate being the only place that makes sense. It feels like we are finally being heard after all those long days in the library and I just keep thinking about how much better it would be to walk across that specific stage instead of just settling for whatever is convenient.

The great hall is the only place that feels right after everything we went through there. PLEASE listen to us.

DARTINGTON OR NOTHING. This is our graduation not theirs.

Dartington is where we actually did the work. It makes zero sense to have us graduate anywhere else.

It would be so much more meaningful to graduate at Dartington. Falmouth is just an office for us.

Seriously? The pavillions? Keep it at the estate where we spent our best years.
