Oakland City University said in a statement on its Facebook page that it is “suspending” its undergraduate classes for the upcoming academic year. “Our online graduate programs will continue to operate during this time,” the university said. “In addition, the University will continue efforts to sell the carbon capture patent, with the hope of reopening once those efforts are successful.” The announcement ties the reopening plan to selling the patent while undergraduate instruction is paused.
Never stop learning, O'Neal told graduates during the LSU commencement ceremony earlier this week. "I'm proud of you all today, but this is not the end of your journey. Make sure you continue to strive, continue to learn, continue to have fun." In Shaq fashion, he ended the message with a plug for his candy brand, encouraging students to "continue to eat Shackalicious gummies at your local 7-Eleven and all the other stores."
“As someone who wants to be a public servant and be an advocate, not only did you help me find my voice, but you helped me find it in a way that would bring positive change to the world,” said Aguilera-Garza, a government and American studies double major with a minor in law and society, expressing gratitude for the lifelong lessons she learned from Paul Gaba, her high school debate coach - “not only a teacher and a mentor, but a friend that I will carry with me forever.”

Graduating from college is exciting, but it can also feel slightly terrifying. Along with celebrating a huge accomplishment, many grads jump right into looking for a job.

If I wanted that I could, you know, go see actual minor leaguers in person. I know "gotta support the school" and all, but I paid tuition to two of them so we're even.
