I don't like the idea of regalia for personal reasons. I was a very decorated high school graduate. Several people at my graduation (including the keynote speaker) asked me where I was going to college expecting to hear the name of a distinguished institution. They all seemed disappointed to know that I was going to a no-name college on Long Island.
I think that it is a better idea to have symbols beside the names of honor students in the graduation program that is handed out. I prefer uniformity because whether you graduate with a 3.6 or a 3.0 (or a 2.0), you still graduated which is an accomplishment for all.
