Quick word about Tech’s graduation ceremony

With the difficult tasks of memorializing the victims of the tragedy and honoring the graduates, Tech struck just the right balance. I don’t know if a ceremony can be both somber and celebratory but this one managed it. President Steiger was excellent and received two standing ovations. Gen. Abizaid’s remarks were terrific. My only complaint was the ceremony was overly long. Given the circumstances, that is but a minor flaw, hardly worth mentioning really.
