Have you thought of serving appetizers of minature
diplomas. To make you cut the crusts off slices of
bread. Flatten the bread by rolling it with a rolling pin.
Thin spread some filling such as tuna salad, cream
cheese spread, deviled ham, or anything else you may
feel is appropriate. Roll the flatten bread slice up and
then tie a thin long strip of carrot or green onion around
the roll like a ribbon. These "diplomas" can be
arranged on a serving platter. I have served them at
graduation parties and they were a hit.

I was wondering about making dessert type diplomas
like Nadia said?? you could use a phyllo dough,
maybe 3 layers and sprinkle each layer with a mix of
cinnamon and ground nuts after spreading with melted
butter. Then you could do like she said and make into
little diplomas maybe just pinch cneter and put a little
frosting on for bow tie after they are baked... just a
thought.
