Pomp & Circumstance

This post is long overdue! Back in the middle of June, we had quite a full weekend of multiple graduation ceremonies down in Hyde Park. Adam graduated from both Law School and from Business School. On Friday (the 13th), the University convocation was held on the quad outside. The graduates were lead in by the U of C pipe band (bagpipes and drums). It was very unique and made the moment even more special. In this ceremony, Adam received his law diploma. After the ceremony ended, the law school held its own hooding ceremony in Rockefeller Chapel (see photo below). It is gorgeous! In the hooding ceremony he was hooded by a faculty member to signify receiving his Doctor of Law. We were able to get some nice photos afterward. Then on Sunday, there was the GSB ceremony. He received his MBA degree during this ceremony. We also had a few parties in between all the pomp and circumstance. Needless to say, we were exhausted by the end! It has been 4 long years, but Adam has walked away with two major accomplishments that I know he is proud of. We all are proud of him:) Now on to the bar exam.....
