In which my little brother graduates from college

Okay, not just any college, but THE Ohio State University, my very own alma mater, and the place where Kevin and I met.  Aww.

And not just with any graduating class, but the 400th Commencement, the largest single graduating class ever, and the last spring quarter graduation, as the university is now switching to semesters.

And now for the photo dump:

Look!  It's Gordon Gee!
With closed captioning!

Look!  It's Lex.  
Playing with giraffes.  Only he always says it, "Gir-af-fez."

Bonus points if you can spot my brother! 
Okay, not really.  I don't even know where he is in that mess of undergrads.  
And there is a rumor that he may not have even been sitting there during most of the ceremony,
having gone to the concession stands with the girl he had been seated by.

Look!  It's the seal of the university!
THE Ohio State University

Look!  It's Kevin, Lex and Grandpa!
They may be on the verge of sweating to death.  
It was approximately 115 degrees in the stadium.  In the shade.

Look!  It's our happy and very hot family!
With two Kevins!

And now it's time for Carmen Ohio:

Oh come let's sing Ohio's praise
And songs to Alma Mater raise
While our hearts rebounding thrill
With joy which death alone can still
Summer's heat or winter's cold
The seasons pass the years will roll
Time and change will surely show
How firm thy friendship ... OHIO!


Congratulations, Kevin!
