AND CIRCUMSTANCE There were two things that the University was widely known for: athletics, and aca- demics. Both could be epito- mized by a packed football stadium. On April 29, 2000, under the warm spring sun- shine, graduating students were awarded degrees at the spring commencement cer- emonies held at Michigan Stadium. Processing in as Uni- versity students, they recessed out as University alumni. When asked if ready to leave, Greg Ng, a Business School graduate, replied, I know that it is time for me to leave and to face the working world. After singing the national anthem which opened the cer- emony, graduates were greeted with speeches by University President Lee Bellinger, student speaker Jamie Katz, and the chosen BY CAROLINE MENG commencement speaker, AND Dav,d Halberstam, Pulitzer CAELAN ORDAN Prize-winning war correspon- dent. Finally, thedegrees were awarded as the graduates were generally recognized. For their first time as alumni, graduates sang Hail to the Victors, concluding the cer- emony, and then filed out of the stadium to depart in vari- ous directions. Michigan Life 17
