School officials said they will hear students and parents out if they appeal. Meanwhile, the school said the five students can still get their diplomas by completing eight hours of public service work, answering phones, sorting books or doing other chores for the district, situated about 150 miles southwest of Chicago.

I think it is a bit harsh to make the students receive the punishment such as this. I say escort the offenders out and keep it moving.
Also, the person calling out the names can space the names out until the noise dies down. It's been about five years since I have been to a HS graduation.
Decorum in general has become a lost art in our society, IMO.
