Three german students got sued by their alma mater for 10,000€ because they graduated “too fast”. They completed their bachelors and masters degree within 4 instead of 11 semesters by attending different lectures and sharing notes. Then they founded a ghostwriting agency.

I bet you’ve noticed that there’s a graduation for everything now. And every grade. If I remember correctly, I think I had an eighth-grade graduation, and then I graduated from high school (barely).
Nowadays, judging by social media, every single grade has an elaborate ceremony with all kinds of pageantry. What is going on?
I think you know what I’m talking about…let’s get to the jokes!
Pre-kid me: “Preschool graduation ceremonies are so dumb what are they graduating from- naptime?”
June 28, 2018: “DOWN IN FRONT, IF YOU MAKE ME MISS THIS PANORAMIC SHOT OF MY BABY’S SPECIAL DAY AS A SCHOLAR I WILL KILL YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY.”

Just got invited to my nephew's preschool graduation. I'm actually thrilled he's decided to finally do something positive with his life!

At preschool graduation, the kids announced their heroes.
Most said their mom or dad
My 5-year-old said her pet pig
Not that I'm jealous.

There are parents at this preschool graduation in formal wear and I just used water from an old sippy cup to get Dorito dust off my jeans.

Nothing says false sense of achievement and unwarranted success like a preschool graduation.

Me: This is a meaningless honor that won't help her in life.
Wife: So it's like your English degree.

Preschool graduation: gotta love the way kids fade out when they don't know the words & then shout the ones they do. Like me in synagogue.

I attended my 5 year old's junior kindergarten graduation today. It was emotional for him (he cried because the staple in his hat fell out).

Cried at Son's Kindergarten graduation & the Mom next to me said "Aw, it's hard to watch them grow." Me: "No, I'm sad free daycare is over."

Made it out to nephew's pre-school graduation. Kids' career goals so far: blonde mermaid, gymnast, ballerina, Moana and a … ghost/chef.

Thanks for posting pictures of your kid's preschool graduation. Impressive that they were able to pass the playing with blocks portion.

Preschool graduation! Pro: will be super adorable. Con: somehow scheduled to last 90 MINUTES. Assume each 5-year-old giving a speech.
— Dan Kois (@dankois) June 15, 2012
6-year-old: Are you excited about your preschool graduation (which is almost a year away)? You get to sing songs!
4-year-old: I don’t know what I’m going to sing…maybe I’ll do “I walk a lonely road…”
Pre-K graduation 2019 is going to be epic.

I can't believe I live in a world where kindergarten graduation presents are a thing. Wtf? You aren't even literate, kids. Keep working.

It takes a lot of courage to simply get up and speak in front of a large crowd of strangers. It really takes a lot of courage to come out as bisexual in a speech – especially in a valedictorian speech at your high school.
Which is exactly what a young man named Mason Bleu did when speaking at his graduation in New York City. During his speech, Bleu told the audience, for a “long time, I have struggled with my sexuality. I’ve dodged it and ignored it because I wasn’t proud of who I am. But today I’m changing that. I’m proud to be a bisexual man.”

In a Twitter post, Bleu said, “So I came out during my valedictorian speech. It was definitely the scariest thing I’ve ever done but the reaction was amazing. Thank you to everyone who supported me!”
The reaction from parents, friends, faculty, and fellow students: a standing ovation. Take a look at the video.

— bicon living (@maasonbleu) June 29, 2019
In a follow-up tweet, Bleu said, “The overarching theme of the speech was about being proud (it is pride month) so I decided that I couldn’t tell people to be proud of who they are when I was in hiding for so long. Anyways, I did this not only for me but for anyone else who has struggled being closeted.”

And Bleu followed up his big coming-out party with a trip to the New York City Pride parade.
Thank you for all the support
really means a lot to me. On that note, I’ll be at NYC pride tomorrow. I hope to see some of y’all
— bicon living (@maasonbleu) June 29, 2019
And he offered up a sympathetic ear to anyone who needed to talk.
With that being said, you’re not alone. Reach out to me or anyone else you trust. I’ll definitely be willing to talk to anyone.
thank you so much and happy pride!
— bicon living (@maasonbleu) June 29, 2019
Good work, Mason! You’ve undoubtedly encouraged many young people to feel comfortable with they are and where they’re headed in the future.

Every summer, we’re treated to a never-ending barrage of people celeberating all sorts of things from graduations and proms to weddings and baby announcements. But here’s a new style of photoshoot you probably haven’t seen before that promises to be a big hit. I mean, this gal is really starting a trend, I CAN JUST FEEL IT!
Sarah Whelan Curtis just finished her PhD at Emory University in Atlanta, and she decided to have a little photo shoot with her baby.
No, not her actual human child – her thesis. And she added the comment, “Longest labor ever.”
Amen to that.
Yes, I did a photo shoot with my thesis. Longest labor ever. #phdlife pic.twitter.com/wpGdFPANd6
— Sarah Whelan Curtis (@sarahwcurtis) June 4, 2019
Curtis wrote her thesis on genetics so you know this was no easy task. We’re talking years in the making here, folks. Four years, to be exact.
Other students shared their own photos and “labor stories” after seeing Curtis’ tweet.
Congratulations! I am into the 66th month of labour and expecting soon.
— Kunal M (@ProfAntMan) June 4, 2019
Thank you for causing a very big laughter at a breakfast table in Frankfurt, Germany. My partner LOVES the idea and feels you very, very, very much. Congrats!

Curtis clearly hit a nerve because a lot of people feel the same way.
Wow now I have no choice but to do this
— Clint Smith (@ClintSmithIII) June 4, 2019
Curtis said her mother gave her an ultimatum: “Either give me a Ph.D. or give me a grandchild. I got my doctorate.” Yes, you did. Congratulations, Doctor!

Kids from the Ho Chunk nation receive $200,000 upon turning 18 and graduating. The money comes from profits from the casinos. Many of the recipients end up blowing the money fast with little to show for it.
