I am now a graduate!

YES! That’s right, on Thursday I donned mortar board and gown and was officially given the title Bachelor of Science. It was great getting to see all of the chaps from Uni again and quite strange being back in the same hall in which I was welcomed three years previously.

I seemed to spend quite a lot of money too; I’ve ordered a commemorative T-shirt along with a DVD of the ceremony and a whole load of professional photos.

Talking of professional photos, the ones from my camera are in the gallery now so check ‘em out!

The day was great! We were kitted out with our gowns before being seated in the William Aston Hall for the main ceremony, after a few speeches the University head presented an honorary fellowship… to Michal Owen! Yeah! The footballer was at my graduation! With that over our names were read out and we shook hands with the main man and received a commemorative coin for the trouble.

After the ceremony there was a reception in the Edward Llewin building library where we mingled with old classmates and took many thousands of Gigabytes of photos before heading to the 1884 restaurant for a small meal and champagne and then home.

All in all three years and £15,000 well spent I would say, I had soo much fun getting my degree, the experience has certainly changed me and was one of the best times of my life, I’ll never forget those hallowed halls.

The server move went well and I had no unexpected problems by the way.

Don’t forget to check out the photos,

Jon
