Graduation Stuffs and Mom

[P.J.]

Mom's PhD will be conferred on May 10th. She is still on faculty at school (on sabbatical) so she will be sitting with the faculty in academic regalia for graduation. She's gonna look so cool in her doctoral robe! Dad gets to sit with faculty too - his robe is cool too. He has an MFA right now and is a PhD candidate. I love the look of the academic regalia.

I will be in a blue robe. I will be wearing a white honors thing around my neck and I have three cords to wear.

I will speak at graduation and sing the national anthem.

Mark (my brother) will look like me and he has two cords and an honors collar and he has a football pin.

Julie's ( my fiance') robe is white - she is the valedictorian!

I ended up third and Mark (my brother) ended up sixth.
