I'd keep it simple, especially if people are walking for graduation that day.
We had our program head be the MC, and two of our instructors were voted on to hand out pins. Nice and orderly we walked up as our names were drawn and got our pins.
There was a speech by the class president, and the hospital reps who handed out awards.
Outside the venue we had cookies and water for refreshments. The third semester students were ushers and cleaned up, for this we donated 100 bucks that was left over from our graduation funds to theirs.
We gave 20 bucks each, every semester and had enough for the venue, refreshments, 50 dollar gift certificates for our clinical instructors, invitations, etc.
Ideally you should attend the graduation from the class ahead of you, and steal all their ideas.
