SAN DIEGO (KGTV) â Graduation season is almost here and San Diego colleges are planning to give graduates a proper celebration, with in-person ceremonies.
Walking across the stage and grabbing your diploma is a dream for many college students. Unfortunately, that wasnât the case last spring when colleges, like San Diego State University, had to go virtual.
A 20-minute commencement speech was given to SDSU grads online.
âI was telling myself that Iâm probably going to have a virtual graduation,â says Brenden Tuccinardi.
An online ceremony wonât be the case this year. San Diego State University is enlisting help from Petco Park to hold in-person graduation ceremonies.

President Biden proposed $6 trillion in new federal spending over the next decade in a speech recently that has been analyzed as a complete opposite of President Ronald Reagan’s ideas of how to grow the economy.
Reagan’s view, which has been continued by several presidents after him, was that reducing the government burden on businesses and investors would also benefit the working class.
The Biden administration says its plan instead aims for more direct government spending to help the most Americans.
“Trickle-down economics has never worked,” the president said in his speech.
