There has been no talk about our graduation ceremony that is supposed to be April 10th. Will there still be a ceremony? What about caps and gowns? Shouldn't those things already be ordered? Do we even have a chance of graduating? Are they hiding this from us?

Okay, Brandon folks, where the hell did you even FIND this pic? Mmm...looks good! https://sociorocketnewsen.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/food18.jpg?w=580&h=435
Of course graduation will take place. Don't let elitists get you down.
I am the OP....I am not interested in the ceremony, I am interested in the actual graduation. Will it happen?
you guys are funny. mean but funny.
Here in Brandon we are big DIYers. Last year we rented a local hall and made the food ourselves, and it was a huge hit! Everybody raved! Here are some pics from our buffet: https://sociorocketnewsen.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/food18.jpg?w=580&h=435 (yum - OMG as good as it looked!) http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/01/10/article-0-1A8C819500000578-404_634x507.jpg (nom, nom, nom - EVERYBODY loved this one!) We saved enough moolah to have the area's hottest (well - one of the area's hottest) band's perform! http://dansetrack.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Kevin-Prater-Band.jpg
71341 - we'll probably be doing something similar for our commencement this year. Sounds like you guys will still have a nice ceremony/reception even with the cost restrictions. Good luck to you!
345 -- see my post below. It'll be great!
California....will there be a graduation in California?
Anonymous71326: It actually depends on your location and the cost of facilities rentals in the area. There may also be downgrades from last year to reduce expenses while we transition. For example, our campus held a reception at one of the area's finest restaurants last year: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BmUccyJwJNw/TIJZatonSwI/AAAAAAAAEVQ/mXkQq02klCk/s1600/DSC_0206.jpg (cash bar), but this year we'll have local caterers providing a barbeque at a graduation "hoedown" behind the campus: https://seahoney48.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/hillbillys.jpg (should still be fun!). Ask your CP for details at your campus, and enjoy!
Got to have money to order caps and gowns. Moreover, it takes money to rent the graduation location. CCI has no money. `
