Virginia Tech offered ten separate graduation ceremonies this year for different student groups based on identity.
Virginia Tech hosted ten separate graduation ceremonies for students based on their identity. In May, the university held separate ceremonies for Black, Asian, Latino, Muslim, and LGBTQ students. Breitbart News reported in May that many American colleges offer separate graduation ceremonies for Black students.
The College Fix reported this week that Virginia Tech is one of many universities that have adopted separate ceremonies for student groups based on identity. For example, The Donning of Kente Ceremony is held to commemorate the graduation of Black and African American students.
Virginia Tech will also hold a “Lavender Ceremony” for student members of the LGBTQ community.

What about Whites, the people that built these institutions
ReplyDeleteSo much for unity! I didnt think we were living in the 50's anymore!
ReplyDeleteFine with me. Have you been to some of the graduation ceremonies when certain members of society act like complete idiots?
ReplyDeleteLeave to Virginia. Back to Segregation!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the liberal KKK but with a new twist
ReplyDeleteSounds like separate but equal. How far we've come.
ReplyDeleteYou are right 9:44. Pure trash, that probably couldn't pass without bent rules for lazy thugs
ReplyDeleteAaahhhh segregation is alive and well
ReplyDeleteHey Va. Tech alumni. Are you proud of your school. Don't forget to donate.
ReplyDeleteI went to my wife's graduation at Towson University a couple of years ago. The President asked that applause and hootin' and hollerin' (not his exact words) be held until after everyone was called on stage. From the very first black student called until the last one, not one black family listened. Almost every white family listened and waited until the end to celebrate. I wish they would have had separate ceremonies there.
ReplyDeleteIt's only illegal if you are white.
ReplyDeleteThe hard working silent majority in this country does not need special treatment. We never have. Our votes speak volumes as they did in 2016.
ReplyDeleteHave they re-instituted segregation?
ReplyDeleteWe certainly wouldn't get away with it!
Maybe they are waking up to the fact that we don't want to associate with them!
Full circle in 50 years
ReplyDelete2:16, I agree. (map)
