THOMAS JEFFERSON UNIVERSITY APOLOGIZES FOR MISPRONOUNCING NAMES DURING
COMMENCEMENT

The presenter for Thomas Jefferson University's commencement is apologizing
after a video of graduate names being mispronounced went viral.

PHILADELPHIA - Imagine standing on stage waiting to receive your diplomas, only
to hear a jumbled mess of your name during a milestone moment in your
educational career.

That was the case for several nursing graduates during a Thomas Jefferson
University commencement ceremony last week.





For graduate Sarah Virginia Brennan, the presenter announced, "Sayer Oo-voon
Geen-goo Bree-none;" while "May-vee Lee Zu-beth" was called out for graduate
Maeve Elizabeth.

Video of the graduates' confused reactions has since gone viral, and sparked an
apology from the university.

"We are deeply sorry for any disappointment this may have caused," Thomas
Jefferson University said in a statement.

The school said the presenter didn't look at the names from the book in front of
her, instead choosing to focus on cards given to her.

"The mispronunciations occurred due to the way phonetic spellings were presented
on the speaker's cards."

It will certainly be a day they will never forget!
