Seen: Emotions take center stage on Graduation Day

(Varsity, varsity….)
The pomp and ceremony of graduation day at UW-Madison brought thousands of graduates and many thousands more family and friends to the Kohl Center for five commencements last weekend.

But, no matter how many people attended, graduation isnâ??t a group thing.

(Praise to thee, we sing)
Itâ??s a very personal event, as personal as anything you can ever go through. When your son or daughter walks across the stage, name announced, video screen high above the floor showing the brief, shining moment, the memories and tears start to flow.
