Darn those tassels!

They're always getting in the way, especially if you're Amber Labine from Grand Rapids and you want to give your guy a big smooch for graduating magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in biology.

Labine's betassled boyfriend, John Leese from Charlevoix, was among almost 700 members of Lake Superior State University's Class of 2005 who received degrees today during LSSU's 43rd annual commencement.

Almost 90 of this year's graduates were from Sault Ste. Marie and Algoma.

Since SooToday.com News set up shop more than three years ago, we've published the names of every single one of the higher-education graduates at Sault College, Algoma University College, and those graduates of LSSU who come from our coverage area.

Today, we're proud to recognize our local LSSU grads:
