Syracuse University has selected Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JP Morgan Chase as the 2010 Commencement speaker. We, the students, alumni and friends of the university, are against using the 2010 commencement to restore the public image of the banking industry and validate the anti-environmental and anti-humanitarian interests of JP Morgan Chase.
We demand a graduation speaker sensitive to the current global climate that this class is poised to inherit on May 16th, 2010.

    • Chase puts credit-card sign up booths on college campuses and offers free t-shirts to students who will sign up for a credit card. This is blatantly predatory and exploitative and has no business happening on any university campus. The CEO should have no business here, either.

    • Send our graduating class out into the world with wisdom from those who think out of the box, who see outside the confines and corruption of Capitalism.

    • This is a slap in the face to us students. As we enter the work world in this economy, it is an insult to have as a speaker one who bears the responsibility of why we will struggle to gain employment.

    • The fact that we could have gone with Michelle Obama but instead chose the CEO of JPMOrgan, makes me worry what direction Syracuse University is heading
