๐๐. You were in chicago? LOL! I got ya! Take names refuse the palestooges their sheep skins. Thanks for ruining the serious folks day.
I did not attend my Harvard PhD commencement because I had to go away to start my postdoc. So I got the diploma in the mail like everyone else (including those who went to commencement).
I still think that most of those who walked out of commencement will be sorry they did so-sooner or later. Those who will not be sorry are a bunch of crumb-bums anyway.
They also missed the nice lunch that is served after commencement! Maybe those who stayed to the end got extra food!
