(reading names of graduates)
For some of them this is the one time in their
life that their names is gonna get said over a PA system to thousands of people.
I'm Jamieson Price, and I'm a professional name reader.
Kids would know me from lots of different video games.
So I do the whole, "Fatality" - "Finish Him."
It gets me a lot of street cred. (laughing)
(reading names of graduates)
Every name should be said loud and proud so
that family gets that warm flush of energy, and "this is my kid out there graduating."
Not only for the family, but for everybody else because they are sitting through thousands
of names.
Some of the names are quite tongue twisters.
The Engineering Department, they kill us.
It's really fun.
(laugh) I am looking forward to calling out my daughter's
name.
She's in the Theatre Department and she's graduating this year.
I think we've arranged for her to be the last person.
We'll make a big deal out of it, embarrass them a little bit, in a good way.
But also kinda get the crowd up, like "how bad do you really want to hear this name,
how bad do you want to graduate?"
It's a very proud moment, it's a real moment of accomplishment and achievement for
the students and a rite of passage in some ways.
They enter college still as kids, kind of, and you come out and you are in the real world
now.
And it's an exciting thing to have your name said like that.
