	The promotional ceremony was followed by a dinner in the Golden Hall (Gyllene Salen). Paula, Aili, Lotta, Monica and Erik were joined by Professor Ulf Hannerz (thesis supervisor, seated next to Lotta) and his wife, Docent Helena Wulff Hannerz (seated next to Erik). The superb food was accompanied by speeches, toasts to the university and singing by a male choir. We patiently enjoyed the three hour festivities.
