Otago Polytechnic has postponed its upcoming graduation ceremony because of Covid-19 just months after it was postponed for the first time. It is with deep regret that we announce this decision. We realise this will be really disappointing for our learners and their whanau. We re disappointed, too. We know what a special time graduation is for everyone, Dr Megan Gibbons, Chief Executive Otago Polytechnic, said.
It's as true now as it ever has been: nowhere else offers an education experience like that of Dunedin. But rather than resting on their laurels, the University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic have plans to make the city an even more inspiring place for students.

Hundreds of Dunedin university graduands and their families continue to wait on tenterhooks for a decision on tomorrow s graduation ceremonies.
After it emerged yesterday that a security threat sent to the University of Otago earlier this week warned of a shooting, vice-chancellor Prof Harlene Hayne said the university continued to work closely with police and remained hopeful the two ceremonies would go ahead as planned.
The university would advise the more than 700 graduands affected by early this afternoon, Prof Hayne said.
