It makes me sick. And of course there are no White Graduations. Whites don’t deserve it. I am shocked they still let us sit in the front of the bus.

And the local gay pride parade is now just called the Pride Parade. I suppose straight people have nothing to be proud of.

"Mayor MEChA:"

Read about how a pro-communist, ultra radical "MEChista" named Tony Villar cut his hair, changed his name, put on a tie, and became the mayor of America's second largest city.

That long hair in the photo above is now the mayor of LA, back in his UCLA pro-communist MEChA leader days.

We were fortunate to be able to skip the cattle call graduations at UMass Amherst and Carnegie Mellon Univ. when our two older sons graduated. Our #1 son was in the Commonwealth College at UMass, which is their honors college, and two weeks before graduation, they had a ceremony during which each graduate was called by name, they walked across the stage, and were presented with their Honor Cords, which they were then able to wear on their robes at the big graduation. Afterwards there was a nice reception for the graduates and their families. I asked our son if we take pictures, call this one his graduation and skip the zoo. He was glad to do that, because he was working part time as a city bus driver, and he made some extra money on Graduation Day, shuttling folks from the outer parking lots the 1/2 mile to the stadium.

Same thing at Carnegie Mellon, where #2 son was a grad of the School of Computer Science. The big gathering was in the morning, and by the time the SCS ceremony was held, the campus was mostly cleared out. Again, our son had his name called, he walked across the stage and received his diploma from the head of the department. That was a fun celebration. As we had entered, each person coming in got a 'goody bag', that had a light saber. We were all seated, and when they played Pomp and Circumstance, all the professors filed onto the stage in their colorful robes and caps, carrying LIGHT SABERS! What a hoot!

At the big graduation ceremonies, the undergraduates don't get recognized individually, they are just noted by 'Schools' and they all stand up together. No thanks!

I trust that, at our military academies, too, there are “separate-but-equal” graduation ceremonies for the various different ethno-cultural groups and sexual orientations. [/sarcasm]

I swear I wouldn’t have believed this if I hadn’t read it. I understand having separate ceremonies for e.g. the different departments (Physics, Athletics, Nursing, etc.): the crowds are smaller and the atmosphere more intimate. But on the basis of ethnic self-identification??!

Do they have separate areas at the cafeteria, too?
