The key to this stuff is to not give a flying f*ck what the WW wants; if you want to go to the graduation, then go. If you want (or need) one of the tickets, then tell your WW you'd like one of the tickets but you're not going to sit next to her stinky @ss.
Of course, I wouldn't be so crass as to call my WW a stinky @ss. Well, I probably would, but I'm not suggesting that you do that.
The point I'm trying to make is that you should go if you want to go and don't allow your WW to determine what you do.
