[quote=Anonymous]depends on the circumstances. my PhD was a really big deal to my family, and honestly for me despite the fact i'm not big on pomp and circumstance. we're an immigrant family and it was an ivy league...more symbolic than anything since you're done after your defense. if she's nonchalant about it or has other family going then i'd skip it. i couldn't pay my family to skip mine and my school has commencement on a Thursday, which is pretty inconvenient since it requires you to be there by Wednesday, Thursday and department stuff is on Friday.
