It took many years, but we finally made it. Mr. Tigger is officially a PA!
It was a pretty formal affair. First they had the cap and gown ceremony with the School of Medicine. Then they had another graduation with just the Physician Assistant (PA) students. All in all they had two graduation ceremonies and received two diplomas (their Master's degree and the Physician Assistant diploma). For me it meant quite a few hours sitting in a chair on two separate occasions, but it was worth it.

They held the PA graduation ceremony in a giant room inside Rice Eccles stadium, which was pretty cool. Mr. Tigger received his second diploma at this ceremony so we both got to have one, which is good because I'm pretty sure I earned it.
