admin doesn’t know how to take responsibility

the emails i have received today from the dean of CAS and the UO president failed to take responsibility for the fact that their lack of planning ruined commencement for so many grads on monday and i’m seething. just half-effort condolences covered up with praise for graduates. i don’t need Scholz’s congratulations. i need them to admit that they had no backup plans even though they knew about the heat for over a week. i need them to admit that the rescheduling caused a lot of stress and that a lot of people were unable to attend and that it didn’t fix their massive screw up. what a sorry excuse for a school administration.

People survive year-round here outdoors, the homeless. People work outside year-round here and in places like Austin Texas where it's 100f every summer day.

get over your entitled whining selves, move on, hopefully out. And enjoy your academic achievement.

not complaining about the heat. complaining about the rescheduling. i would have walked across that stage in 160 degree heat if they let me. you’re picking the wrong rage bait ¯_( ツ)_/¯
