Folding the flags in front of Widener Library signaling the end of commencement ceremonies for 2007. By my count, old Widener Library has seen 90 Harvard commencements since its solemn dedication in 1916. During my masters commencement it rained heavily. Umbrellas, it turned out, are useless when 20,000 people sit huddled together.
My rented gown, having been dirty to begin with, ending up a disgusting pile of damp cloth. I saw my PhD commencement in Pierce hall through closed circuit television. On T.V., the event has its own official commentators, as if it's a sporting match.
