So, here are a very few of the pics. :D

Many congratulations Tom… seeing those pictures certainly brought back memories of when I got my Associates Degree from good ole Ivy Tech. :) (2002)
Did they have the ceremony in Lafayette, or did you have to go to Muncie for the ceremony?
Maybe it just depends on the region where one takes their classes, but we had our ceremony in the auditorium, on the campus of Ball State University in Muncie IN. Even though most of my classes where in Marion, Fort Wayne, and just a few in Muncie.
Anyway congratulations again…

Hey, when you threw your hat in celebration they should've played this song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcOZ6xFxJqg).
