PhD Commencement: Day 1

The day had arrived for Bryan's graduation, April 26th. Thursday night was the entire BYU commencement. There were thousands of graduates which means the Marriot Center would be overflowing with people. Ben, Deb, Sarah, Amy, Violet, and Ocean flew into Provo the day before to support Bryan in this amazing achievement.

People were flooding through the doors and piling into seats.....

The place was so huge it required a jumbotron, which was really nice to help see the action.....

We got there an hour early so we could get descent seats. We still ended up almost to the back, and people continued to herd in.....

Ocean waiting patiently. What a cutie pie!

The graduates begin occupying the rows of chairs. We thought we'd have a challenging time finding Bryan except we discovered his green pants! Haha. Brilliant!

The program lasted two hours. Here are the photos we took for day one of the graduation process:

Day one was a wrap celebrating Dr. Bryan Hamilton!
