Advocates like the design, saying the stadium can accommodate graduation ceremonies. Foes, however, scoff, and are asking: "What happens when it rains?" "A $5 million football stadium large enough to accommodate a once-a-year event -- and one that would have to be moved to Boston College in inclement weather -- is a luxury that Newton simply cannot afford," said resident Jane Frantz, who has been monitoring the planning for the new school. -- Connie Paige Posted by the Boston Globe City & Region Desk at 02:49 PM
