Graduation News!
Thursday, May 13, 2010 at 12:37AM Okay. I just found out some great news leading up to Graduation. I have been nominated and chosen for a Commencement Honor. I will be representing all Master's students at the University ceremony. This is what is called being a symbolic degree candidate. The Brown Graduate School sends one Ph.d. student and one Master's student to the ceremony. Both are acknowledged on the platform in front of the president of the university, Corporation members and a sea of students and family members. I'm touched and honored because I was submitted to a nomination process, and I was selected.
When applying to the program three years ago, I would have never imagined such a distinction and it's a pleasure to represent the Master's students and my colleagues.
