Do they announce your grade at graduation? (At Kent university)

Just wondering how they do it for undergraduate degrees. Do they say your mark when they give you the certificate? or just treat everyone the same?. I'm fairly happy with my grade(a 2.1) but just wondered how it worked.

If anyone has been to a graduation at Kent i would appreciate any response, thanks.

Not everyone the same.

They call out everyones name and ppl who have a first get their grade called out with their name.

Eg:

Tom smith, ..... Mark rogers,...... With first class honours, bob giles,..... Paul White,.... Etc. Etc.

So 2.1 and under dont get called out

Thanks for the reply, it's annoying they don't say the grade for everyone(i'm fairly proud of my degree) but i guess it doesn't matter really. Although I hope i don't get called up after someone who got a first.... it just seems like it would de-value my mark(i know its petty but it bothers me).
