Commencement: A Beginning
There is no doubt that a student’s graduation marks a very big achievement. You have
tackled difficult exams, participated in extracurricular activities, possibly completed
an internship or research project — all while making life-long friends and memories.
Rather than an ending, commencement (both the word and the ceremony) represents a
beginning. It is appropriate that an occasion which marks the beginning of a new phase
of life should be conducted with pomp and circumstance, stateliness and tradition.
