That aside, the ceremony was actually tedious, the speaker was poor in my opinion, and the main purpose of the ceremony seemed to be to promote the university where it was being held. Perhaps this interested the older attendees, but my third and fifth graders had no interest at all- overall, if there were a next time, I would skip it.
It sounds bad to say this (sorry your kids were bored) but I'm so glad to hear this. I'm going to choose to think it's tedious and he wouldn't like it that much. He's my squirmiest, loves-to-be-moving kid, so maybe he wouldn't want to sit for hours!
