At NTU the students' names are read out in groups of (usually) 3 or 4 but they then cross the stage individually, shake hands with their Dean of Faculty and then receive their certificate from the Registrar or a senior member of staff before exiting the stage and returning to their seat.

Colleagues -
At Brunel, students have historically shaken hands with the Chancellor or Pro-Chancellor (whoever is presiding) as they walk across the stage during a ceremony.
We have been asked to investigate other forms of acknowledgment - what happens at your institution please? I have heard of a form of "doffing" on the shoulder but have no idea of the details or which institution this might be ......
Any replies directly to me please - and I'm happy to collate responses if anyone's interested.
Many thanks in advance.
Liz
