WSOSP Observations of Educational Institutions at Commencement Ceremonies 2010:

Cal State Pomona: kudos: shortest prelim before awarding of diplomas

fail: some paid to park (I didn't)

Loma Linda Academy kudos: genuine love felt/seen between faculty and students

fail: faculty lines-up in middle aisle on graduates recessional PROLONGING the relatives and friends greeting of their love ones.

Loma Linda University: kudos: best high definition jumbo video screens

fail: parking (nightmare)

Univeristy of California- Riverside: kudos: best signage from blocks away, as well as on campus

fail: printed program cost $5.00

Cal State San Bernardino: kudos: graduates names were shown below the video of them

receiving their diplomas

fail: a) only graduates received printed programs

b) PhD faculty literally chasing beach balls to confiscate from graduates doing ceremony
