    Graduation tomorrow, Im wondering what to wear under the robes.

    There's some confusion regarding what the robe for Bsc Computer Apps actually looks like, so I dont know if its open or closed. Preferably I'd like to wear a plain shirt, jeans and leather slip ons. The only pair of formal trousers I own are cheap and fit really poorly, I'd hate to have to wear them.

    Also, after the ceremony and picture taking and all that is out of the way can I ditch the robes?

    The robe is open so I, like everyone else I saw, wore a full suit. I gave my robes back after all the photos and things were taken.

    Color wise the sash is blue and yellow and the robe is very dark navy/black.

    Did everyone have a great day?
    Had a great day myself, though the ball was such an anticlimax.

    I thought the ball was great, although there are a few hours of it which I can't recall. I'm just assuming I was having fun, whatever I was doing.

    I loved the ball! It was so much fun! I was a little tipsy.
