I did a proper college graduation ceremony with my family, GF, and GF's parents. I felt priod at the time, A nice party afterward at our house, then a drunkfest with my fraternity brothers. I never gave a thought about graduation ceremonies for either of my graduate school degrees.

I didn't go to my community college graduation (even though my mom wanted me too lol), but I plan on going to my State University graduation when the time comes.

Being a Music Major, and playing in both the Orchestra and Wind Ensemble, I went to every graduation ceremony all 4 and 1/2 years I was there. . . I went to mine - mid-year short ceremony FTW!!!

so it is a mixed bag.

I am not sure that i was reallly all that proud of myself for drinking a bunch of beer and squeeking by in semi shitty state school.....

I guess if i went to a $35k a year school (where my brothers go) there would be more pride in graduating.

I am going to their graduation....guess i have to get them a gift of some sort..... subscription to hustler?

Didn't go for my AA degree, did for my BS, and didn't for my Masters.

Yo Scot, I know that ass! It's got to belong to a cute 20 year old.

I probably won't go simply because I'll have to buy the graduation rope. Around here they rape you in the ass with the cost of these, and I'll only get to wear it once. Not worth it.

The honors ropes were the reason I almost did go to college grad. Had I gone I would have had them framed with my diploma.
