THIS.
Also, I don't really get how names can be missed. Generally, graduations are in venues equipped with sound systems to be heard over a roaring crowd of people. Honestly, most people are only listening for their graduate's name anyway. Again, I graduated high school with 1300 other people and my family managed to find where I was seated and when I walked, despite the fact that I graduated in a pro-basketball arena and despite whatever other noise was going on.
But people who bring airhorns and jugs full of quarters and vuvuzelas and everything else are just being excessive. I totally agree there.
