That guy has now officially graduated from asshat to uberdouche. Congrats on graduating, OP! Get your degree back and hit the guy in the head with it. Good use of your diploma ;D
"while you're at it, why don't you give me a paper cut and pour lemon juice on it" oh The Princess Bride... (sorry, the comment reminded me of this quote)
At least you can get a new copy, right? I'm no college graduate, but I doubt they can't ever get you a replacement.
The real diplomas aren't in there. It's usually just a blank piece of paper. The real ones come in the mail about 4 months later in a big tube. :) I'm sure they would hand OP a new "diploma"
2/10. Terrible, just terrible.
why would someone do that??
Because they're an asshat.
yeah, that would make sense
Surely someone out of those 55,000 was able to trip or catch him/her?
Most of the time they don't put the actual diploma in the binder they give to you on stage. So, OP, you will still get your diploma and now you have a great story to go with it. Immediate loss = a lifetime of winning.
I never understood the point of that. What a waste of time, just give the actual diplomas at the ceremony.
They have to make sure you've actually earned it first. Usually graduation is immediately after Finals Week, and your final grades haven't been turned in yet. If you fail a class you needed to graduate, you haven't earned your diploma.
my graduation ceremony was six months after my final hand in date. and we didn't get our degrees on stage, we had to shake hands with the chancellor of the university and then get our degrees offstage. it wasn't even particularly nice, just a piece of A4 paper in a red binder. but then again, my uni was shit.

Poor OP :(. I wish he had tripped.
I guess that asshat really wanted to graduate. :)
