At least it does in the US. I do not think that they do it in Japan. Now that I look back at it I think that Ingraman's comment was meant to point out that they do not actually don caps and gowns. Maybe?:sweat:
That's exactly it. They're graduating, but there are no caps or gowns in sight. I was just saying that ADV must have had KyoAni provide new animation if they're describing it in those terms. It's _slightly_ misleading otherwise. ;p

ADV should just use the word "graduate", rather than making a poor attempt at being flowery/poetic/whatever.
