“The NEC also resolved that the Alumni symposium which is usually part of each convocation programs and which provides the Alumni members the opportunity to gather in ESUT on each convocation to support and celebrate an age-long convention of awarding an Honorary Doctorate Degree to an alumni member whose name is submitted by the Alumni as deserving of such award is for the first time in several years not scheduled to be awarded and therefore lack the usual spirit to gather to participate and celebrate through the symposium and as a consequence has therefore shifted the symposium to next convocation.”
