Sixth-graders and teachers from Datong Elementary School in Changhua County’s Shengang Township wear masks as they pose for a graduation photo at the school on Monday. Another version without masks was also taken on the same day, with students and teachers being asked to hold their breath for 30 seconds as a safety precaution.

National Sun Yat-sen University president Cheng Ying-yao (鄭英耀) yesterday said that the university, due to its proximity to Kaohsiung’s Sizihwan (西子灣), is to hold its graduation ceremony outdoors on the beach.
The university estimates that about 120 doctoral students would receive their diplomas on June 6, while about 2,000 bachelor’s and master’s degree students would receive their diplomas between June 1 and June 6, Cheng said.
Departments are free to choose whether they would hold their respective ceremonies on the beach or in indoor venues, he added. [FULL STORY]
