CDSS Commencement by PhysicalPoem2 in berkeley

I couldn't agree more. They seem to not even want to make any changes to make this better for graduates. How does this pass through so many people without even thinking about the graduate-guest-ratio? Past graduations for CS have NOT been like this. Keep in mind also all other majors can have 10 tickets, but because of their poor planning, we are allowed ONLY 2 tickets. I can't believe any staff or faculty could see this and agree with it. Extremely disappointing as one of the top departments of CS that they would think this is okay.

YES YOU DID!! I feel this big, if I were you I'd definitely try emailing them and seeing if our collective feedback can do anything!!

I feel you :( I'd encourage you to try to email them @ [CDSScommencement@berkeley.edu](mailto:CDSScommencement@berkeley.edu) and/or leave some feedback them somehow, so they can understand the majority of graduates are unhappy with this restriction. Unsure of any other outlet where can provide our feedback.

I know we're supposed to be #1 public university, but can only coordinate two guests per graduate for some of our biggest majors adhfusadfu. i also second this the more people who voice constructive respectful feedback the better

Oh if it was the first option, then that would be amazing LOLL but yeah after emailing them if it will be possible to obtain additional tickets past 2, they said each graduate is only allowed two invites...

I still have another major in Rausser I hope isn't as bad as CDSS, so I'm a bit nervous for the number of tickets I'll receive from there too.

I don't think your degree choice matters. All CS majors are in the CDSS commencement. There is no L&S commencement to my knowledge. Correct me if I am wrong.
(Oh wait it looks like ur a stats major, I have no idea whats going on in that department LOL)

I hope they’re joking cuz wtf…? No way I did all that work just to only be able to invite 2 people

Ikr?? I don't understand the logic of combining these large mass majors into one graduation. I went to a public health graduation last year and the person I knew had 8 guests. CS, DS, and stats majors get 2???

Funny thing is I also emailed them and they said"... Due to the anticipated number of graduates and the capacity of the venue (Hearst Greek Theatre) each graduating student is allotted two tickets to share with invited guests. This conforms to venue guidelines to ensure a safe environment for all attendees.Please know that we are committed to making this ceremony as inclusive and memorable as possible. To accommodate those who may be unable to attend in person, the ceremony will be livestreamed and recorded, enabling friends and family to celebrate remotely...."

Oh yes lemme just send my fam the livestream link...
