Important Announcement About the 2020 Graduation Ceremony
Dear Graduates,
Like the rest of the world, our country has for months been under the threat of a very dangerous global pandemic. With economic problems added to the great pain of lives lost, humanity is facing serious problems. We hope that humanity will emerge from this process as soon as possible in the light of science, having internalized the value of nature, peace, friendship, mutual aid and solidarity.
Unfortunately, you spent the final period of your university years during this global pandemic, as the whole world tried to get through it under lockdowns and behind masks, holding its breath as if watching a horror film. In this difficult process, which still continues and whose end cannot be predicted, we at BAU were lucky despite everything, because we were healthy. We were lucky because BAU had the technological infrastructure and online working experience to complete this process most efficiently through online education. We were lucky because you, our students, who understand the world so well, had a high level of awareness and common sense.
We have not been able to meet you face to face for about four and a half months. We conducted all our courses, work, exams, events and services online. We missed the days we spent together in classrooms, the smell of the laboratories and the lights of the studios. We missed your presence that brings our campuses to life, your voices full of youth and happiness filling the sky of our university, your bright faces and your smiles. Believe us, we missed them very much...
Despite everything, we overcame all the difficulties together; you succeeded, and now you are graduating.
Because of the pandemic, this year we have planned to hold our graduation ceremony, which we celebrate with great enthusiasm every year, in two stages. Our first ceremony will be held on an online platform on 15 August 2020, bringing our whole family together. Our second ceremony will be held on the D Terrace of our university by faculty and department in accordance with the schedule below and in compliance with pandemic rules. Graduates who cannot come to campus will be able to join the second ceremony online if they wish. With enthusiasm and joy, just as in the days when we were all together. We believe that while your honorable BAU diploma brings a bright future to your life, you will always keep this ceremony, unique to your class, alive in your heart as a memory of your unforgettable years at BAU.
We wish you a new life full of success, happiness and health.
Despite the sadness of parting, we are happy to know that we will always be together on humanity's virtuous path in thought, science, work, service and success.
We wish you all the best.
