Behind the Scenes at Graduation

What is it like walking across the stage at St David's Hall? Where's the best place to have your photograph taken? How do you wear your gown?

During graduation the week, soon-to-be alumna Alex Gravell will be taking to the streets of Cardiff to be our reporter on the ground, interviewing graduates and their families as well as taking us behind the scenes of Graduation 2012.

She'll be asking the Class of 2012 about their best bits of their day and will speak to proud parents and family members about their graduation experience.

Alex will also be reporting for us during her own graduation day. Having just completed her undergraduate degree at the School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, Alex will graduate in a ceremony later this week.
