It really bothers me, especially when the President of the college, the principal or headmaster of the HS make a special request at the beginning of the ceremony for people to use their good manners.

At our son's college graduation, we were "lucky" enough to be surrounded by a large, boisterous family who all stood and hooted,hollered,stomped, and chanted while their graduate was receiving her diploma. I was grateful that our son was not next to their graduate alphabetically. With the exception of a few other families, everyone else carried on the decorum the event warranted. Some colleges offer a formal dinner for soon to be graduates so they can learn the proper utensil to use, as well as practice dinner conversation-perhaps they should offer classes for proper behavior at graduations for relatives.
