With the support of the Philippine Consulate General, New York, the event will be held at Kalayaan Hall of the Philippine Center on Thursday, June 16th, 2016 at 7:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The Philippine Graduation Ceremony (also known as P-Grad) has been a tradition for many years in colleges and universities along the West Coast with high Filipino American student populations. At these ceremonies, community leaders commend the achievements made by graduating students of Filipino descent, and send them off to the next stage of their careers with words of encouragement.<\/p>\n<p>We continue this tradition in order to celebrate the students in the Greater New York\/New Jersey region. Remarks will be given by the Consul General, the Honorable Mario Lopez de Leon and leaders of the local Filipino community, followed by a presentation of the graduating students.<\/p>\n<p>For tickets and information visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/the-fourth-annual-new-york-metropolitan-area-philippine-graduation-ceremony-tickets-24494797599\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thursday, June 16\u00a0 07pm Philippine Consulate General, New York 556 5th Ave, New York, New York 10036<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64767","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stay-connected-to-the-latest-local-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64767","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=64767"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64767\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":64770,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64767\/revisions\/64770"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=64767"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=64767"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=64767"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
