On Graduation Day
there is a reception in the Department
for the graduands and their guests.
Everybody has a job to do:
there is someone to polish glasses
and wash them up afterwards
someone to lay out the envelopes
and welcome the guests
someone to make the labels
and the fabulous poster display
someone to unwrap the catering
and someone to open the bottles of bubbly
someone to address the graduands
and present the prizes
someone to play the trumpets
(that is a specialist job)
someone to organise the procession
and someone to take the photographs.
It is a pleasure and a privilege every year
because it is such a special day.

ReplyDeleteI was fortunate to be one of the guests on Wednesday (Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures) and it was such a lovely, memorable day!
ReplyDeleteHave you noticed how the trumpeters place their trumpets under their chin straps when they play, thereby covering their nostrils with said strap?
Know what you mean - best day of the year really! (and you get to meet Mums and Dads and Grannies).
ReplyDeleteSo a lot of hard work, a lot of fun and many happy memories.
