No Alcohol at Graduation

2011 was a great comencememt

I gradauted

I shook hands with a prez

I walked out with my classmates of four years

I was handed 8 beers

I drank those beers and hugged my professors, my mentors, the people that made me who I am

And then the beer was banned

I really never want to donate again

Drinking beer is not a sign of disrespect. Show me an event that lacks alcohol. The Madrigals dinner honors donors, and there is alcohol. Alumni weekend and Hawktoberfest honor alumni, and there is alcohol. Am I missing something?
