Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia had to apologize after a bunch of nursing students’ names were mispronounced at their graduation on Thursday.

The woman reading them BUTCHERED a ton of names that weren’t hard, like “Elizabeth” . . . and also “Thomas” even though it’s in the school’s name.

They blamed it on poor phonetic spellings of the cards she was reading.  But they ultimately swapped in a different announcer halfway through.

Check out the video, plus here for more lowlights.  She gets a few right from :53 to 1:25 in the second video, and then it goes off the rails again.  People online have been comparing it to the classic “A-A-ron” sketch from “Key & Peele”.

@colleenb415Please tell me how one can be allowed to speak at college commencement and mess up that badly 🫠😬
