Floating mortarboards
Hundreds of awards
Colorful dresses
Joyful faces
Tears of victory
Grade: satisfactory
She throws her hands up
He calls his beloved up
Ella Summa cum laude (She graduates with a summa cum laude)
El suma dificultad (He has so much difficulties to graduate)
Who knows
What each went through
She asks for consent
He fights for consent
She pleases with smiles
He gratifies in sweats
Both have degrees
But dignity bestows
Upon those with efforts
(A piece of thought from a night phone call:
Evaluating a case: a thesis presentation was held and the things that were questioned were mainly focused on the quantity and appearance of presentation and less on the quality of the written content: Were the examiner aware that graduates' dignity was at stake?
Proceeding the latter, upon hearing stories of those graduating from the above institution, which does not apply suitable standards for its graduates, a question regarding the purpose of graduating arouses: Is graduating just for the sake of a degree or for one's own worth of dignity?
