To the Editor;
This letter is in response to your editorial from volume 25, issue 11 (March 22-March 28, 2017). I read your editorial and wanted to respond with a few thoughts;
1. I felt the same way you did when I graduated. I even had a job lined up that I thought I would love, and I left it three months later! Don’t worry, I ended up finding my passion shortly afterwards, and you will too.
2. We wouldn’t let you out of here with a degree if you weren’t ready to take on the world, and win. All of the things we have made you do in your time here have been with an educational intent. You may not have seen it at the time, but you are well equipped to be successful in the world.
3. We are proud of you. You may not know it, but we take so much pride watching you walk across the graduation stage. You have changed, and grown, and had success and failures, and become the person we hoped you would be when you walked in, on day one. You are the reason we do this work.
4. Your relationship with us doesn’t end at graduation! If you need information, support, or a place to just be, we are here for you. All you need to do is ask. There are many official ways to be an alumni, but at the heart of it, we want to hear about your success.
5. D.F.T.B.A. (Don’t forget to be awesome). You have worked hard, you deserve this. Celebrate it.
Sincerely,
Your Super-Proud Administrator Person
