Graduation haul to Oxford
Lee Wong, West Chester Twp. official brought this topic to my attention. He said he wants to see the district look for local venues for graduation, such as outdoor ceremonies in the stadiums. What do you think? Is there a local venue close enough and large enough? Would you rather have it here and limit tickets, or drive to Miami University?
Here is Wong’s argument: “I served in the U.S. Army for 20 years. I recall the most memorable graduations were those held in the open field with full pomp and circumstance. I can count in one hand of those ceremonies indoor due to severe inclement weather conditions. Besides, it is in conceivable for the Army to hold its graduation ceremony say, the Navy, Air Force or the Marines! There is something about it. I just don’t feel right when a Lakota graduation is held in Miami University (indoor stadium)….it’s just not the same. Gee, how did the older generations survive with all those outdoor ceremonies without A/C and a roof over their heads?”
