Nice! We got ours a few weeks after the degree ceremony, in a hardbacked manilla envelope. Maybe this accounts for the lack of UK people displaying their certificate - if it doesn't come fancy already, it's less likely to become fancy. (In this poll, which is obviously a true and representative sample.)
Obviously a true and representative sample. But actually I know at least a few USians who got their diplomas day of the ceremony, rolled up and tied with a ribbon. That might also encourage some kind of framing/preservation sort of thing, since of course it wouldn't last very long if you stuck it in a drawer all rolled up.
