They deserve their ceremony at the end of their studies like everyone else.

The change promotes inequality within the university. I will argue that it favours specific faculties over others. I will also argue that the change, if it had been agreed upon as stated at the beginning of the year, should have been told to the student body and staff before the yearly calendar was set so as not to disrupt the schedule of affected students.

i cant believe the change of dates. It puts a sour end to an otherwise amazing and fulfilling 4 years. Common guys!

I think it is ridiculous. Making people wait for ceremony that they have earned is just rude. Plus there will be hardly anybody there in April and it would lose its meaning.

Very unfair to the students. UOW you need to rearrange these dates.

This is ridiculously unfair to students. I want to be able to celebrate my graduation at the end of the year, not in March/ April the following year. We shouldn't have to be putting our lives on hold. Why are particular faculties getting first privilege? This is disgusting. Sort it out UOW!

Will take away from the feeling of graduating if we have to wait so long. People could be all over the world in April! Surely there is a better way to manage and hold a graduation in December!!

As an international student I think is unfair to be delaying the process of graduation. Specially because our visas expire normally around March and the latest we graduate the worst is for us.

UOW should seriously reconsider and take into account the students needs, otherwise they are not performing their role properly.

This is unfair. You have known for four years that this larger number of students would be graduating this year so this short notice is not acceptable.

None of this makes sense, and the email came with little explanation as to why some faculties were favored over others. Really discouraging.
