The video was based on the excellent “Take-Away Concerts” from Blogotheque, each worth […]

In true GS style, guests were greeted by Howard Fishman and the Biting Fish Brass Band, who marched the graduates in to “Down By the Riverside,” rather than your typical 10-minute rendition of “Pomp and Circumstance.” The ceremony continued with a rendition of the national anthem […]
