The moment I submitted my last final and realized I had obtained my life long dream of earning a degree from Penn State! There is no better feeling than obtaining your goals and realizing you did it while overcoming the obstacles of every day life!
To the Shenango campus and Penn Staters everywhere,
This year we kept teaching, learning and working hard to overcome many obstacles. But, in the words of Joshua J. Marine, we have come together to appreciate that challenges are what make life interesting, and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful. Your vigor to push forward has inspired me throughout 2020. Thank you.
I would not be where I am if it were not for what I've gone through. I am here to tell you as living proof, that even if you feel that you are at rock bottom, keep your chin up. Things can, and do, get better. It hasn't been easy, but that's what makes this moment even that much sweeter. We made it.
