A mass of proud parents, friends and attorneys paraded through the state Supreme Court for the swearing in of more than 130 University of Wisconsin Law School graduates earlier this month.
However, the law school holds its public ceremony almost a month after graduation and approximately half of the class did not attend on June 11.
So where were the 126 other graduates from the spring 2008 class?
Assistant Dean for External Communications Carolyn Lazar Butler said there are a variety of reasons, both deliberate and inadvertent, as to why graduates miss the opportunity to be sworn in among their peers.
