Celebrations after the formal graduation ceremonies would always be chaotic. I knew 2 things going down onto the field for the celebration afterwards.
1. The sky was mostly partly cloudy and
2. Pictures would have to be taken quickly, one after the other.
No time for Manual settings. So Aperture Priority, CLS and TTL would just be fine. I used my standard formula D200 CLS settings at about -.3 and the SB800 at +.66. Exposures turned out mostly perfectly, with a tweak of +.25 in LR3. The duckbills/head garlands were a problem, but the light on the track reflected up nicely to partly offset the shadow.
This is when my formula A/CLS/TTL works, making sure the background, especially the Memorial Fieldhouse was exposed nicely (1 stop less than foreground).
