The university officially confirmed that convocation is moving to a date that does not conflict with our bar exams. I am relieved that we can now focus on our professional futures without this added stress. Thank you for pushing for this change alongside me.

We the undersigned, students of the University of Ottawa Faculty of Law, support the rescheduling of the Faculty of Law 2012 Summer Convocation, currently scheduled for the evening of June 3, 2012, in order to better accommodate those taking the June 5, 2012 Barristers examination.

Seeing 250 names on this list proves I am not the only one feeling the mounting stress of this schedule. It is a relief to know my classmates want the same chance to focus on the bar exam without this looming distraction.

We are approaching 250 signatures and hitting this benchmark will prove that our classmates are united in this stress. Posting this link to your social media right now is the best way to ensure the administration listens before the exam pressure becomes unbearable.

Total nightmare for anyone writing the bar. Please just move it.
Already stressed out enough with studying for the bar. I shouldn't have to worry about a convocation dinner on top of it. Fix the date.
How is anyone supposed to focus on ceremony during bar prep? This needs to be moved like weeks ago.
This is honestly ridiculous. Two days before the bar exam is way too much stress for students who need to be focusing on the biggest test of their lives.
Ridiculous timing. Let those kids study.

uOttawa really missed the mark here. Have some consideration for the students who have put in years of work just to get to this point.
