8. I wonder how the secular kids felt at having their graduation
turned into a revival?

I appreciate the whole "student-led" business, but this sort of thing always leaves someone out in the cold and at least one someone was left out this time.
It may have been the majority of the class that wanted this, but I suspect that it wasn't as monolithic as all that; one can only imagine the amount of pressure the minority was under to shut up and stand up while their religious peers turned their graduation into a statement.
