It is now possible to relive your graduation ! A student from University of Limerick was wearing a GoPro during his and created a insightful video.

James Liston is his name. He comes from Newcastle West, County Limerick. After four years, James graduated on Tuesday (August 22, 2017) with a BA in Politics and International Relations from UL. He was among 2,687 graduates, including 47 PhDs conferred at ceremonies at the university this week.

His video is a first-person insight where we see him preparing himself for the final step of University, putting his cap and gown, shaking the hands of his friends, throwing his cap in the sky. At the end he steps on the stage in front of hundreds of people and receives his diploma.
