Some informal observations after yesterday’s ceremony:

  • This may be our largest class yet
  • M/F ratio is abnormally high
  • Lots of suits

I wonder whether these observations reflect generational, situational changes or do they reflect changing perceptions of the faculty? I’ve heard that students from Western Japan are more reluctant to attend University in the Kanto region after 11/3/11. One can only speculate.
