I have worked hard for this bachelors degree. I shouldn't have to pick and choose which family members get to spend this hard earned and extremely memorable moment of my life with me.

I have many, many family members who have supported me through this journey ...atleast 10 tickets will suffice ...this is unfair and unreasonable to allow five tickets for graduation but spend students fees on events, venues, and buildings that a great number of us do not even use!

I have 5 children. If I only get 5 tickets to graduation, how does my husband, my parents and his parents attend?

I think this is unfair and that the students should not be limited to this unreasonable amount of tickets. This is a momentum occasion and I'm sure they would like to invite as many people as possible. Please remember this is only a once in a lifetime event.

I have attended this school for five years and have a husband and six kids plus parents that I'd like to invite and having to choose who gets to see me receive my degree is unfair when so many have cheered me on and been there for me during this long journey. We need more room for attendees.

As an expectant graduate of Spring 2016,I feel as though this venue needs to change.It is not big enough for the graduates including their family.

I am a student at voldosta state. And I also am graduating soon I would leave my school and reffer students and family members to different colleges. We Want family to witness our achievements as they have been there since day 1.

Crazy that these students have to fight for what they deserve after puttiing in relentless hard work and dedication. The place students have been graduating at should be the same for these students. I know y'all wanted all your supporting cast to be in attendance.. why wouldn't they ?.

TO PICK AMONG FAMILY MEMBERS IS ABSURD, AFTER ALL OF THE DEBT, HARD WORK AND DEDICATION TO COME TO THE SCHOOL NOW THEY ARE BEING DEPRIVED OF ALLOWING ALL OF THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS TO VIEW THEM GETTING THEIR DIPLOMA!! TO ALL FACULTY AT THAT SCHOOL, I KNOW YOUR PREVIOUS COLLEGE DID NOT TREAT YOU IN THE SAME MANNER, BUT YOU ARE DOING THESE STUDENTS WRONG!!

Venue change !! It's not fair for the graduating students family and supports to be limited in attendance where y'all turn more money hungry than taking care of the students that pay the bills ! No students no college. Remember that.

The school is not telling the graduates that not all of them will be able to obtain three more tickets. The grads will not find this out until less than two weeks prior to their big day. This is about the school using the graduation day as a marketing tool to show off the campus, when it should be about what the graduates want. It's embarrassing to have to tell family members they cannot attend because the school is trying to save money.

In my imediadte family I have more than 5 people and I do not think it is fair that I have to pick and choose who can and cannot come.

I would love if the graduation would be at the Macon Coliseum. It is ideal because Middle Georgia State is now a University. Students who earn their degree should have the right to invite whoever and however many people they want to their graduation. It is extremely special and any and everyone should be able to see a college student being recognized for all that have accomplished graduate. The Macon Coliseum is also bigger.

I feel it is unfair for me and my fellow students, who have paid a great deal of time and money, to have to chose who we get to share this momentous occasion with. We deserve the right to invite as many family and friends that have helped us throughout our journey. They deserve to celebrate this amazing achievement with all of us at the ceremony, not through a computer screen.

I feel the venue should be at a location large enough to accommodate as many family member of graduates as possible. This event is about us, the graduates, not the university or the university system. We should be honored for our achievements and graced with the presence of all who supported us.

This is ridiculous all family members deserve to see their family graduate
