COMMUNITY DISCUSSION: Reposting from Ti Era Mike K: Apparently, this was LCC's graduation today. As a parent, this is heartbreaking to read. People are absolutely cruel and I don't understand why anyone would want to do such a thing. This is a once-in-a-lifetime event that cannot be repeated. For Aloha, please do me a favor, peeps, and let's wish her daughter congratulations and our best wishes for a successful future. You will go far...don't let this speed bump deter you from your bright future! "I am a parent of a student that was suppose to celebrate their graduation today. My daughter and other students received this email hours before graduation. Not realizing it was a scam we took it seriously. My daughter was ready and all glammed up but realized maybe it would be better to postpone like the note stated considering safety and that their graduation was suppose to be held outdoors. We told family and friends of the graduation being canceled. After hours in traffic and driving past the school on the way home we saw a lot of cars going in and out and decided to check it out. We drove in there and realized the ceremony was not cancelled and was happening. I questioned the security and they had us pull to the side and look into the situation. They took pictures of the email and were so nice and whole heartedly apologized as it was a scam. They asked my daughter if she wanted to go in and still participate (time is now about 6:30 pm ceremony ending around 7 pm with lei giving to follow.) Her cap, gown and shoes all at home. Traffic just crazy…she told them she didn’t want to participate anymore because she only had shorts, shirt and slippers also she already told all her family and friends of the cancellation. The disappointment of all that studying to get this outcome was heartbreaking. Just spreading awareness for others so they don’t have to go through this. (Her daughter) plans on continuing to get all the way to her doctorate to become an art director for Disney." Join the discussion in the comments below! Share your thoughts and experiences.
