Graduation ceremony with drive-through For prevention of new corona infection United States May 16 12:56
In the United States, which is graduating from university, a drive-through graduation ceremony is held in which students receive diplomas while in a car to prevent infection with the new coronavirus.
This was done by California State University San Marcos on the 15th, and about 700 graduates participated.
In Western California, restrictions that had been taken as measures against the new coronavirus were relaxed, and some shops were allowed to resume operations, but the situation where many people still gather is still open.
At the ceremony, cars with graduates dressed in gowns formed a long line on the university campus, and university staff wearing gloves and face shields handed out the word "Congratulations" and handed the diploma through the window. It was.
“I'm glad I can graduate despite this situation. I am grateful to the university,” said the male student.
In the United States, which has a graduation season from this month to next month, many high schools and universities offer such drive-through methods and “virtual graduation ceremonies” on the Internet. A large-scale virtual graduation ceremony will be held with the participation of Mr. and Mrs. Obama.
