    The fun thing is that people say “I graduated” or “I’m graduating” but it’s technically more correct to say “I am being graduated (by the university).” I might be mixing it up a bit, but the idea is that the university always has the final say over whether or not you get that important piece of paper at the end.

    One of my teachers in high school taught us this, but I never actually thought I’d see it in action. It’s cruel.
