The commencement ceremony is a time-honored tradition when the achievements of graduating students are accented by the cap, gown, sash, and stole.<\/p>\n
The sash and stole have become an inherent part of recognizing the academic and non-academic achievements of students.<\/p>\n
In recent years, the University of Guam has edged out the public recognition of those student organizations. Students who have spent hours performing community service, and volunteered to facilitate University events, are no longer permitted to don their hard-earned sashes and cords when receiving their degrees.<\/p>\n
In a sense, students are paying in time and money for their contributions to the University of Guam to be downplayed at a time that could be used to recognize those efforts. Such a move can seriously hurt the active involvement, and number of students willing to dedicate their precious time and money to an establishment that gives little acknowledgement to their contributions.<\/p>\n
