Bryant recently made national news after Prez Ron Machetley announced he would be banning selfies of students and him after receiving their diploma at graduate this year. He stated that it would take far too long at the already very long ceremony. Prez Ron is normally one for selfies, being very active on social media as well as always posing for pictures with students on campus. However, the ban on selfies is to be taken seriously to keep the graduation ceremony as short as possible. This quirky news piece was shown on Good Morning America and has ended up on countless newsites, such as New York Times and Huffington Post!
Not to worry though, Ron and mascot Tupper are sure to be around after the ceremony for many photo opps!
