Ok then. Plan One: One-by-one, each graduate throws their mortarboard. (Do the "wave".) Plan Two: Graduates are assigned a group that will throw their hats simultaneously. (Of course,there will have to be a committee to figure out the groups, and ensure that they are safe.)
Plan Two is my favorite. Envision four or five graduates from the first row and the same in the second row as a group. It would look like a kettle of Oroville Reddenbacher. Pop! Pop!
