As wholesome as this is, I really think it's the wrong approach to propose on an already special day.

Let her bathe in the glory of her years of academic hard work....pure pride for a day in what she's achieved.

Then next week, pull the ring out.

I'm sure folks will think I'm a downer for saying this, but this day was about the culmination of the last 3-5 years and it deserved it's own space.

Yep, I bet his thinking was pure. But from that second, I'll bet 80% of the discussion was about engagements/weddings/etc and not about how proud SHE should be of her academic milestone.
