Graduation Announcements
« on: April 17, 2009, 10:31:10 AM »
What exactly are you supposed to do when you get one of these things?  It doesn't really seem like an invitation to go to the commencement thing (which we are not interested in doing)....should we just send a card w/money?

Last time I got one of those... I paid for the Limo for the evening and put the companies business card in the card with a note saying such.  Mind you, you have to do this quickly before they book one themselves.

Like the others suggested.

I hate graduation ceremonies.  I remember one where the kid got up and started, "The word 'commencement' comes from the Latin word commenciare which means 'to commence.'"  I nodded off almost immediately.

One of my pet peeves is that every school, for some reason, always has one of the dumb kids give a speech instead of a more deserving student.

it is a boring as hell thing to go through, even if you are the one graduating.

Boring, pretentious, self-serving, and too long.  Just like an awards show.
