Several viral videos on TikTok show students' names being pronounced horribly wrong at Thomas Jefferson University's College of Nursing commencement.The ceremony was held May 9 at the Philadelphia school. A TikTok by user joanlogan had 2.5 million views just a day after the graduation."Forgot I was at my sister's nursing graduation and thought it was a key and peele skit," the user wrote in the caption.
"The mispronunciations occurred due to the way phonetic spellings were presented on the speaker's cards, which was noted when the presenter apologized during the ceremony. This unfortunate error does not reflect the immense respect we have for our graduates and the value we place on their hard-earned accomplishments.
