SUNY Oneonta Will Host
2020 Graduation In August
President Says: Let’s Celebrate Achievement!
ONEONTA – More than 1,000 seniors will return to SUNY Oneonta in this summer to receive their degrees at a belated commencement ceremony, scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 29.
Three ceremonies will be at 9 a.m., noon and 3 p.m. in the Alumni Field House.
“Especially now, against a backdrop of adversity and change, it is vital to remember and celebrate all that we are achieving,” said President Barbara Jean Morris. “I look forward to welcoming members of the Class of 2020 back to campus and congratulating each of them in person this summer.”
Hello.my daughter along with other students who have worked so hard to complete their college degree. These students where looking forward to walking across the stage in August to celebrate their accomplishments in these uncertain times. We where informed that the 2020 graduation has been cancelled. That is so unfair to get there hopes up high,and to down there sprits. The school is big enough to have social distancing and to demand that in order to attend the graduation a mask must be worn at all time. Oneonta has enough space to host the graduation outside as well. Please allow these student have a sense of completion in this world of the new norm.
Thank You
