当坐落于美丽的英格兰南部的吉尔福德小镇樱花盛开时，一年一度的萨里大学春季毕业典礼就将如约进行。特别的是，萨里大学的毕业典礼是在吉尔福德大教堂举办，这座有着数百年历史的古老建筑，见证了一届又一届萨里学子离开美丽的Stag Hill主校区，带着关于萨里的美好回忆和感受，满怀着对未来的憧憬与希望，从吉尔福德走向世界各地。 上周，刚刚结束的萨里大学春季毕业典礼也在吉尔福德大教堂如期举行，笔者也有幸感受到了毕业典礼交织着幸福、快乐、憧憬、希望和些许伤感的复杂氛围。拨穗仪式和授位仪式之后，一届萨里学子又将各奔东西，为自己的人生增添新的华章。 毕业季，总是带着一种特别的情感——既有离别的忧伤，又有前程的期待。对于即将走出校园的我们来说，大学毕业典礼不仅是一个简单的仪式，它是成长旅程中的一个重要里程碑，是我们青春岁月的一个温柔总结。 毕业典礼的准备通常开始于几个月前。学生们需要确认自己的毕业资格，申请毕业证书，同时还要准备毕业服装和学位帽。这一切的忙碌，虽然充满了细碎的繁琐，但每一步都显得异常珍贵，因为这标志着一个时代的结束和新生活的开始。萨里大学则为毕业生们提前准备了非常细节导向的支持，包括毕业典礼的交通安排、住宿预订和学士服预订，确保每一位特意回到校园参加毕业典礼的萨里学子都能享受到被欢迎的氛围和无缝的体验。 毕业典礼当天，当笔者来到AP Piazza时，广场上已经挤满了洋溢着幸福的人群。无论是校园的每一个角落，还是每一个人的脸上，都洋溢着庆祝的氛围。家长和亲友们从四面八方赶来，只为见证这一刻的辉煌。毕业生们穿着整齐的学士服，戴着象征智慧的方帽，胸前挂着荣誉的勋章，走在通往颁奖台的红毯上，每一步都显得庄严而自豪。 在毕业典礼上，校长和嘉宾的致辞常常激励着每一位毕业生。他们不仅回顾过去，更是展望未来，提醒我们即将面对的挑战和机遇。当学生代表上台发言时，那份对大学生活的缅怀和对未来的展望，常常让在场的每一个人都感动不已。 毕业典礼的高潮部分是颁发毕业证书和学位帽的掷空仪式。这一刻，是青春的告别，也是对未来的承诺。学位帽飞向空中，代表着我们过去学习的岁月已经完成，而未来的道路，将由我们自己去探索和开拓。 大学毕业典礼是一生中难忘的一刻，它不仅标志着学业的完成，更是成长的象征。我们在这里结束了一个阶段的学习，但这并不意味着学习的终止。生活本身就是一所更大的学校，等待着我们用所学的知识和技能去面对更广阔的世界。 萨里大学在全英的就业支持服务和学生就业方面享有盛誉，在多个不同的排行榜上都名列前茅，萨里大学的一般性就业率更曾经高居全英首位。我们相信，毕业典礼并不是终点，而是一段和萨里的故事的起点，以及我们人生华章的起点。再见萨里，你好未来！ 更多关于萨里大学毕业典礼的信息，可以参考：https://www.surrey.ac.uk/graduation When the cherry blossoms bloom in the beautiful town of Guildford in southern England, the annual spring graduation ceremony takes place as scheduled.
