What do think of "She was graduated", as the act was performed on her?

Hi,

What do think of "She was graduated", as the act was performed on her?

Looking at this when it's late at night and I'm tired, it just looks to me like an abomination. [6]



On the other hand, I believe it's often said in American English.



Best wishes, Clive
