UB Grad’s Baby-on-Stage Chase Sparks Outrage
University of Buffalo graduate Jean-Paul Al-Arab brought his baby onto the commencement stage, violating university rules prohibiting non-graduates from participating. Campus police, already present for security, pursued Al-Arab after he disregarded instructions to leave the stage. While Al-Arab claims he received prior permission, the university maintains he disobeyed multiple directives. Despite the incident, Al-Arab will receive his degree and issued an apology.
