Pinning Ceremony

Jeff's school had a pinning ceremony. They had food, and a little ceremony for it. Afterwards they got class pictures taken. Here is a close up of Jeff in his class picture.

And Jeff's class. He is two rows up and three people from the right on the right side of the picture.
Here we are just after the ceremony.

And Jeff right after receiving his pin. You can see it on his pocket.

And Jeff's name before the pinning.

"The Pin is presented to students completing their first year of study. The triangular gold pin symbolizes membership into the physical therapy profession and also represents students' association with A. T. Still University. The pin is surrounded by an aqua border, characteristic of the color of the physical therapy doctoral hood. The triangular shape represents the integration of body, mind and spirit."

Interesting ceremony. I am impressed that you got all that symbolism written down. Exciting though, that means one year down! 2 to go? or is it only one?
