He can kiss his diploma goodbye...LITERALLY

I kinda agree with the school on this one... I mean, if the rules were plainly laid out beforehand and the students willingly AGREED to it, then it's the student's fault that he didn't get his diploma.

I just graduated a month or so ago and we had to agree to the same thing. If we don't follow protocol during the ceremony, then we get denied our diploma. Simple as that.

Was it voted on by the student body, or was it just something that they were told they had to do by the administration.

Not really, when you drill for two weeks on what to do, then decide on the day of reckoning to deviate, that's kinda a fucked thought
"lol I'ma do what told expressly not to lol, why no diploma?"

It's just one of those things you just don't do.
...Like they're really going to enforce a rule about not BLOWING A KISS TO THEY'RE FAMILY. Come on now.

I gradutaed last month, and while we had to follow a set of rules...do you think we're actually going to follow them? It's the most important day of our lives, and they honestly expect us to remain calm? Students danced down the isle, threw a beach ball, brought their phones, etc etc. All the following were things we were told NOT TO DO.

The administrator was just being a straight up butt face. Plain and simple. What harm can blowing a kiss do? The action the school took was wrong. Just wrong.
 
I understand this one... I just graduated like a week ago and we were told we weren't allowed to do anything but walk on stage and shake hands with the people we had to if we wanted our diplommas. Furthermore, we were to tell our family members aka the audience to not apploud us or we wouldn't get the diplomma either. To add to it, we were told that we would recieve a diplomma cover at graduation and that our diplommas would be mailed to us. So even if we or our family did something we weren't supposed to, we'd get our diplomma cover but not the diplomma, at least not until the principal comes back from summer vaction. Needless to say, at graduation we did the shaking hands part but everyone got an apploud from family when their name was called so...
 
When I graduated, I walked halfway across the stage until I was right in front of the row of principals and then I dropped trow and took a **** on the podium. But they still gave me my diploma because I threatened to start throwing it at people.
 
Here's the thing. I actually know the administrator, she taught at my HS while I was there. She's a joyless, humorless sack of pus. KMA, Ms. Lukas.

Heaven forbid anyone actually be excited about graduating; no, graduation ceremonies should be as boring and painful for the graduating class as they were for the people running them.

..Yes?
It's the most important day of our lives,
No, god no. In a year it'll feel like a footnote, or less.

It sucks to be this guy, but seriously? They knew the rules. And if this administrator is as strict and heartless as they're made out to be, was that not another red flag that breaking the rules would be... a BAD IDEA?
