Dear Graduates,
As in the whole world, our country has been under the threat of a very dangerous global disease outbreak for months. Humanity is facing serious problems due to heartbreaking loss of lives and economic problems caused in this extraordinary period. We hope that humanity will survive this extraordinary period by gaining of internalizing the value of nature, peace, friendship, solidarity and unity in the light of science.
Unfortunately, you have experienced the last period of your university education period in this global epidemic, where the whole world is trying to survive by being in quarantine and wearing mask for protection, and holding breath like watching a horror movie. In this difficult process, we are lucky as being part of BAU, because we are healthy. We are lucky because BAU has the technological infrastructure and online studying experiences that help to complete this process with online teaching in the most efficient way. We are lucky because you, our student, comprehend the world very well and have a high level of consciousness and common sense.
We haven’t come together and talked you face to face for about 4.5 months. We had to perform all our classes, studies, exams online. We missed the days we taught together in the classrooms, the smell of the laboratories, and the lights of the studios. We missed your presence which gave life to our campuses, your youthful and happy voices, bright and smiling faces which filled the sphere of our university. Believe me, we missed too much.
Despite everything, we overcame all difficulties, you succeeded and now you graduate from our university.
We plan to hold our graduation ceremony in two stages, which we live with great enthusiasm every year, due to the pandemic this year. Our first ceremony will be held on August 15, 2020 online, where our whole family will be together. Our second ceremony will be held in D Terrace of our university under coronavirus epidemic rules in accordance with the following program on the basis of faculty and department. Our graduates who cannot attend the campus will be able to participate online if they want to attend the second ceremony. We will hold our graduation ceremony with great enthusiasm and joy as in the past. We believe that the honored BAU diploma will bring a bright future to your life, and you will keep this graduation ceremony specific to your period alive in your hearth as a memory of your unforgettable BAU years.
We wish you a successful, happy and healthy future.
Despite the sadness of separation, We are happy to know that we will always be together in thought, science, study, service and success in the virtue of humanity.
We wish all the best as you continue your journey!
