Imagine: You spent four years of your life and as much as $200,000 to reach graduation. But at UC Berkeley, that’s not enough to get you admitted to your own graduation ceremony.
The money hungry administrators demand still more.
Campus Reform reports:
The University of California – Berkeley makes its students pay to attend their own graduation ceremony.
Students who do not purchase the $10 tickets by Wednesday will not be able to attend their own commencement, according to the school’s official website.
Tickets for guests are also $10.
“[The money is] to absorb the cost of commencement,” Lila Blanco, director of external relations and the Office of Protocol at the university, said in an interview with The Daily Californian, the school’s official newspaper.
“It’s huge,” she added…
The only “huge” thing we observe in this story is the greed of Berkeley administrators.
