Not a Kilt, but a different unbifurcated garment
It's been a bit since I've had time to even read posts here, but just got some photos of me from an partitioned event (due to COVID19 precautions) earlier this month wearing my newest unbifurcated garments.
The 14:00 ceremony:
(Bachelor of Science - Biology, College of Science and Mathematics)
The 18:00 ceremony:
(Master of Arts - Teaching, College of Education)
The doctor on the left is Brooks Keel, Ph.D., President of Augusta University. He is a double alumnus of the legacy institutions which were consolidated to form AU (Augusta State University and Medical College of Georgia).
And, I start teaching at one of the local high school on January 5th.

High School (Years 9-12) Life Sciences (Biology this year... my department at the school is trying/hoping to get Zoology, Botany and Ecology offered next year, but you know how bureaucracy works) and Environmental Sciences.
But, I will be getting the broad-field "Science" certification by the end of this school year, too, so will be able to teach Chemistry, Physics and a few others.
(Georgia USA, btw.)

Good for you! I loved teaching sciende (elementary) and you’re wise to keep expanding your qualifications. Well done!

My hat is always tipped to teachers. My mother, grandmother, and many aunts taught; untold years. Anyone brave enough to go into high school teaching at this juncture
has my very deep gratitude.
Also big congratulations on the education milestones. Mama taught on a lifetime certificate with only an associate degree (1939) until I was in the sixth grade (1959). I
know what it takes to go back. Took her six and a half years of nights and summers and round trips of 120 miles a day worked in around days in the classroom to get there.
Drum roll, fireworks. Your parade will have to wait 'til virus clearance is in.

Wild applause, hooting, whistling congratulations on your achieving the wearing of "another unbifurcated garment"!
Earning an undergrad, much less a grad degree, is a HUGE life-milestone, good on you!
"D**n the covid, full speed ahead, teach on!"

Regarding your last sentence, a very cleaver play on Admiral Farragut's words!
