1. Since when do people graduate in frickin May? What happened to June?
Or is that just an old-timers thing?

Most of the people I know graduated in May. Most high schools are in June. Most colleges in May.

10. High School - late May. College, mid-May.
This graduation, though, does seem way too early. I want my America back, too!!!

16. Michigan has a very short winter/Holiday break, so they finish earlier.
Lots of other universities have extended January holidays. But there's nothing to do in Michigan in January anyway.

17. May 7th is the last day of classes at UC Berkeley (finals are next)
And there are so many graduating on the campus that each department has a different graduation day all through May. all in different venues, because some departments are very large and others quite small.

2. The faces of the students say it all.
By any objective standard, the man is fucking impressive.

15. That honorary doctorate looks good on him. Look how intent the new grads are...
Somehow I don't remember academic audiences looking at Bush the Lesser like that. I'll bet Pres Obama didn't make one single joke about getting bad grades, and I'll bet he spoke in complete and compound sentences. Hekate
