It's bad enough we have to pay for numerous things to go through the ceremony, but for those of us who graduated in December, it's ridiculous to attend the ceremony in May.

Many of us already have jobs, started paying student loans, skipped town, etc. etc. And making it to this graduation ceremony is about the biggest pain ever, not to mention that it's almost as ridiculous as celebrating a birthday six months after the fact.

And it's totally the equivalent of a high school diploma, just much more expensive, to everyone. My celebration was a long time ago and the novelty of not going to class anymore has long worn off.
