“My college graduation was in an arena, and it was hot in there, like 5,000 degrees”

Many college graduations are held inside in arenas, where over 1,000 degrees may be handed out. A joke was posted on Reddit—Jokes on May 26, 2017:
   
“My college graduation was held inside the basketball arena and man was it hot. Musta been like 5,000 degrees in there.”
 
“Why doesn’t the sun go to college?”/“Because it has a million degrees” is another joke about college “degrees.”
