What does the salutatorian do at graduation?
139374
It depends on the individual ceremony, but technically, the salutatorian gives the opening speech. The word comes from the Latin word "salve" which means hello. The valedictorian gives the farewell speech. It comes from the Latin "vale" which means good bye.

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS! \n\nI would recommend that you start off by a quote or saying that you have followed/led your life by. Then follow it up by citing examples, anecdotes, and situations in which that saying helped get you to where you are today.\n\nDo not make your speech a "Thank You" note to your family and other loved ones. Yes, do thank them, but do not make them your primary focus. Remember that you are a representative of your class, so try to include everyone in your speech in some way. Does that make sense?\n\nAlso, do not talk solely about yourself and your achievements. Talk about the different successes that the class has experienced as a whole. Mention things such as different events that were held at the school, obstacles that the school has had to overcome during your 4 years there, and victories you all have experienced (including scholastic achievements, such as test scores).\n\nWell, that will give you a start. I helped my students with their speeches while I taught high school, so good luck and be very proud of your accomplishments! Way to go!

there are usually more than the top three but a range on gpa or grade point average. usually the gpa ranges from 0 to 4 and some schools go up to 5 but they end up having to "translate" it into the more widely used 4 point scale. \n\nbut i believe graduating with honors  is in the range of 3.5 to 4.0 gpa. there are 3 "ranks" you can be included in - cum laude, summa cum laude and magna cum laude. cum laude itself means "with honors" in latin. i can't remember what summa means but magna is like saying with the greatest of honors. \n\nbut basically it means you are the cream of the crop so to speak.\n\nim sorry but they seem to be blocking out the word  C U M which is understandable BUT it means "with" in latin

you will recieve info with all the stuff you need, but you won't get it until closer to his graduation. make sure you have all the vehicle registration info and proof of insurance handy as you will need it to get on post. And give yourself extra time to accomodate those who do not have that paperwork readily available.

Contact their alumni association. Also, their library should have, in their reference section, a copy of the graduation catalog (list of degree recipients).

1. Talk to the school Student Aid office. \n2.  Be in the top of your graduation class. (better grades means better scholarships)\n3. Get recommendations from two of your professors.\n4  Apply for as many scholarships that you qualify for and get the paper work in on time.\n5.

The ceremonial cover for a graduating alumni is tagged as 'a mortar board,' the kind used to hold the cement mix of plasterers and bricklayers.\nIn this symbolic dress can be appreciated the respect bestowed on an academic achiever for their dedicated work towards constructing a solid foundation for their futuristic well being. \nThe 'tassel' is set on one side of the mortar ceremonial cover and is transfered over to the other side upon the handing/presenting of a diploma.
