And, two other points

One note I found odd at the University of Illinois graduation. The new Ph.D.s all got their names called and walked across the stage. But no such love for the new JDs and DVMs. I figured all doctor's level degrees would get the same treatment, but no. There must have been a separate ceremony because I see almost a full page of JDs in the booklet, but only two (2!) came to the same ceremony as Matt.

Secondly, I would abstain from comment, but Mark Evanier had the most fitting comment on recent news.
