Congratulations, sunburned graduate!!

I watched the commencement speeches for a while, and thought I might get back to hear your name called, but traffic + hhheeeaaat means I just got home - with a sunburn too!!


Treat yourself special today. You deserve it!

You didn't miss my name, dear. They don't call them. They don't even call you by department. Just "on this side will be the college of science and engineering, business and creative arts, on this other side will be behavioral and social sciences, humanities and everyone else." They ceremonially tell the story of one graduate from each college at the university, give them a hood, and that's it. The rest is just an endless line of people in purple polyester.

Luckily I wasn't looking for a deep meaningful culminating experience.

congrats!

Hey, I was there. My little sister graduated from SFSU today as well. We're all sunburned, too. I think getting through that ceremony was your last final for this particular portion of your academic career. Congratulations!

Thanks. It was an odd ceremony.

The Puff the Magic dragon thing just was too much.

Yeah. Especially when it was already done before. Why re-do it? It didn't sound like a good idea the first time. There was no singing along in my section. Well, okay, my mom did... but she sings along to muzak.

Matt, I know of few men who have worked as hard to get their college degree as you have. You're one in a million. Congrats and good luck in your further academic endeavors.

I second that. You've worked hard for this degree and I applaud you for signing up to earn another one. Congratulations, buddy.

Congratulations!

Hope I'll be saying the same thing (though not the sunburned part, most likely) in the near future, whenever I can afford to finish my degree.

Way to go! I know it's no small feat, especially with a kid.

A good job well done, I say. Hope all is well for you and you deserve a pat on the back and then some! Good luck at Davis! I admire you for continuing with your education because we both know what a pain being a student and a parent can be. Back to my revision.
