A note from the chair
Once again it’s the time of year for long goodbyes and moving on to new adventures. We congratulate our class of 2019, many of whom participated in our departmental graduation ceremony in Woodburn 100. Meeting everyone – proud parents, grandparents, and extended families -- was a joy. We echo the pride we saw in your eyes. Your graduates are off on grand new endeavors. You had a grand send off by the faculty, who all wish you well, and student speaker Kathrine Hitchcock who had the honor of delivering the graduation speech. Congrats to you all. Keep in touch and come back and visit!
