Today i graduated from the barbizon in wilkes barre. We had the ceremony at the best western Genetti hotel that we were all required to attened in order to recieve our diplomas. The graduates along with our parents were asked to pay $47 to attend the graduation. First off isn't that bogus to make the graduates pay to go? Then we get our diplomas after a long day listening to miss deboraha's b*tching. And to our disappointment our diploma's are dated May 31st 1909. We pay roughly $2,000 to attened this school but we can't even get legitimate certificates.
All of the parents are livid since they paid this money and got jipped on the diplomas that are not even useful documents since the date is incorrect. Miss deb. Says there is nothing she can do to change the dates. She can TRY to talk to the printer and see if they can stamp over the "19" and make it "20". The thing is the origional diploma is filled out stating generic information and then stamped in areas that would vary for each graduate.
This includes the first two digits of the year which read "19" and they a stamped "09". This cheaply done certificate leads me, along w / my fellow classmates and their parents, to belive that these diplomas are old and deb has simply stamped in the info hoping we wouldn't make a big deal. I personaly asked why the printer could not just redo the who document and her reply was "it would be too expensive". For the amount we paid for this school we should have legitimate diploma's god damn it!
Then we finially got our pictures we were required to have taken. Although many parents, including my mother, paid shipping and handling, the i'mage studio insisted they bring the pictures to graduation. Needless to say that was another waste of money since we paid to have our pictures shipped when they weren't.
