For those of you that had a family member graduate, congratulations. My son likewise graduated from CSUN (California State University Northridge) last weekend.
He was honored at several ceremonies and not once did they say his name correctly. It was pronounced in Spanish and Irish but not Italian!

You must be very proud of your son. Sounds like he's not only highly intelligent but very hard working. Congratulations to your family!
As far as the name pronunciation, you would think after being at the same school for, I'm assuming, 4 years and obviously being a stand-out student, they'd know how to pronounce his name!
Our last name is often mispronounced and my dd also has a first name that people tend to mispronounce - even after they've been corrected several times. (It's not that unusual a name and shouldn't be that hard really!) As I watched the video of your son, all I could think was how tolerant he must be, listening to his last name being mispronounced time and time again and never letting any annoyance show.
