It's what being an adult is like. You don't study for the fanfare, you study for a goal or for yourself.

That and if you have a significant other, you might also score a celebratory shagging.

Edit: Never mind, just realized this is an anon on 4chan posting about engineering school.

I think it's practical. I haven't known many engineer types to make a huge deal of graduation per se. It's just the next step in a bigger procedure.

Yes, schools are prisons. Their purpose is not education at all but rather indoctrination, filtering, privilege, control, etc.
