At Suffolk, MBAs are all in the family

When Thomas Demakes’s three sons walk across the stage to receive their diplomas from Suffolk University on Saturday, he will not be sitting in the audience with other proud parents. Instead, he will be joining his sons as all four receive their MBAs. For the past five years, Demakes and sons Elias, Timothy, and Andrew have spent many evenings in class. Father and sons took every class together while working full time at their family-owned meat company, Old Neighborhood Foods in Lynn.

Congratulations to Suffolk University. Too bad the Globe appears to feel obligated to tear a good institution down with this negative take on a good story, I guess if you're an AILING NEWSPAPER, it may feel good to try to put another institution into the same category with this sort of headline and by trying to drum up negatives. True, good news doesn't make reporters' careers or get them on the front page, but this story is written like an editorial, not like a report.

Congratulations you four!!
