PAGE 2 THURSDAY, MAY 3, 2012 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Editor's Note I love graduation. I love wearing the polyester gown and the funny shape hat. I love hearing Pomp and Circumstance play while graduates await their diploma. I love the feeling that comes over you when you hear your name announced to receive the diploma. It lets you know that all our hard work has paid off. Sadly, I still have another year before I graduate from my beloved KU. Even though I'm only a junior I still appreciate the ceremony of graduation. KU has some of the best college traditions around and the graduation ceremony is one of them. Walking down the hill with friends and classmates is a great memory to have. I hope the graduates remember all the great times they have had and all the memories they have made as they walk down the hill. When you finally make it down the hill into the stadium a sense of accomplishment comes over you. I hope that everyone decides to attend the ceremony on May 13. It is a great opportunity for a graduate to be with his or her fellow Jayhawks one last time as they say goodbye to the past and hello to what awaits them. Congratulations, Class of 2012! Good luck with your future. Don't forget, you will always be a Jayhawk.
