I don't know if it means a hill of beans to you, but most institutions don't present diplomas at their commencement ceremonies anyway - they typically just give a copy of a letter that basically says your diploma will be sent once your degree has been finalized. Of course, every institution is different. I was simply pointing this out in case not getting a diploma on the date of commencement was something that you were disappointed/worried about.
When my daughter graduated from PITT there was no way on this earth they could hand out the diplomas at the graduation ceremony. It took almost 45 minutes just to get all the graduates into the arena. The only people who were named individually were those receiving their doctorates.
