[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College graduations are completely overrated! Grandparents should not be dragged to them, hell the graduates barely want to go! Keep it simple, get some pics and make the grad wear to dinner with grandparents. [/quote]

They aren't overrated for a lot of people. My graduation was the first college graduation in our family in 50 yrs. My son's graduation will be the next one in 2027. His grandparents will definitely be coming since they are helping to pay for it. Luckily, we are local but if I had to drive a few hours to get them there, I would bend over backwards to make it happen.[/quote]

We're foreigners and in our universities we don't have fancy graduation ceremonies like the ones in America. We still don't care. I did not attend my own grad school graduation, the one and only ceremony I was invited to, since it was in the US, and my undergrad was in Europe.

You'll have to accept that graduations are just not interesting to a lot of people. What matters is what you learned during all those university years, not the polyester gown and canned speeches that one day.[/quote]
