Who's Going to the TESC Commencement Tomorrow?
#1
I'll be there with my family. I'd love to meet some of you if you're going, as I consider you guys to be my real classmates regardless of where you're actually pursuing your degree (Excelsior, Charter Oak, B&M, wherever).

Anyway, my name's Steve M., I stand about 6'5" and 350, I am a power-lifter so it's a fairly solid 350 (its only half belly ;-) ) and if you'd like to call me and meet up in Trenton before grad (like when we're picking up our academic gown thingies) my number is two zero one five four three three nine five one. Take care and I hope to meet at least one of you there!!!

I won't be at this year's ceremony, but I'll probably be at next year's commencement. Congratulations, Steve!!

I'm sorry I didn't get to meet any of you, I tried looking for people before and listening for names. It was a great day and I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did.

I saw you! You gave a shout out to instantcert and cleps!

I was about to say hello on the outside when I was asked by Thomas Edison to take a photo. I took a photo and signed the waiver and you were gone!

The graduation was actually one of the most fun graduations I've ever seen. People were allowed to to say their own names and gave a little extra.

I was one of the people to go up with the AS degrees! I took a bow!

I was trying to watch it this morning, but I can not get it on my computer. My DH got it on his, but in both versions there is a problem at ~1 hr 17 min in. and it seems that is when I was up on stage. I am very disappointed I cannot watch that moment again.

EDIT: DH thought he had it, but it was the 37th Graduation(2009) he was watching DUH!!!

I had wanted my DH to set up a computer to do that, but it never happened.
