How long it Actually Takes to...
(actually, this shouldn't be "Takes to..." ⇒ "Takes for...") the lady saying the kid's name to say the kid's name and the kid to stand up and come down from the bleachers and walk across the floor, and then the lady says the next kid's name while the first kid is still traversing, shaking hands, taking pictures and getting diplomas so the point is we've got the time from the start of one name to the start of another: 0:10.24
At 10 seconds per name, if there are (say) seventy young women in the graduating class, that's 700 seconds = a little under 12 minutes for the "say names, shake, get diploma" bit. I'm not going to guess about other class sizes, because maybe they'd say the names more quickly if (e.g., like at Stuy, there are more like 800 graduates).
