Her family shared with Fox a copy of an email sent before graduation that outlined expectations for students and guests, including restrictions on balloons and guidance for taking photos. According to Campbell, however, the message contained no specific warnings about dancing on stage or possible disciplinary consequences for doing so.
‘Never change for anybody’
Despite the controversy surrounding her graduation day, Campbell is already focused on her future.
This fall, she plans to attend Georgia State University, where she will study business administration and continue pursuing her passion by joining a dance team.
And while the split may have sparked a debate that extends far beyond Chicago, Campbell says she has no regrets about expressing herself in the moment.
“I hope everyone stay true to themselves and never change for anybody,” she said.
