Graduating in Plymouth means a lot to both myself, my child and the rest of my family. To be denied the option of doing so while other partnership colleges have this choice is a real kick to myself and the other students in our year. We have worked really hard to achieve these degrees and should be able to celebrate alongside our peers.

I graduated from Strode with an FdA in History, Heritage and Archaeology in 2010 and, as amazing as the course was, the highlight was the Plymouth graduation. Having all of my fellow students and my tutors there while I got my degree certificate was something I will remember for the rest of my life. Future students should not have such an important part of the experience taken from them.

I'm totally shocked at this as when I completed my HHA degree with Strode, the degree at Plymouth was a fantastic end to our degree and one of the best days of my life. Students deserve a degree after their hard work,.

I'm delighted to announce because of all our hard work Plymouth University have informed us that we will be now graduating in Plymouth this September. Thank you all for the support you have given the Strode College students as now we will be having the graduation ceremony we all deserve and will never forget. Power to the people!

As a student of Plymouth University, and having spent the past three years working extremely hard on my degree, I feel that we all should be entitled to attend the officual graduation ceremony, as we have been led to be able we would throughout. We are all devastated that this is not the case, and feel we are being treated as second to those students who attend the actual university site.

Having watched my daughter dedicate 3 years of her life to this degree i thik this is nothing more than an insulte to them. Never at any stage were they told they may not be able to have a proper graduation and Plymouth its almost as if you are treating them as second class studenst. They have worked just as hard to get their degree so treat them fairly

They need a proper graduation.
