congratulations
Today, I witnessed the pre-commencement exercises of the MSU IIT CASS graduating students. I housed the parent and kins of one graduate, a sister of one who has become more like a sister/daughter to me. I heard the guest speaker talked about his very own experience as an alumnus of the Institute, specifically of CASS. I heard him reminisce the valuable lessons he learned from sociology to history to literature to the panitikang Filipino. All of which he cherished. All of which molded him into the person he has become.
I cannot help but remember for a splitting moment, my students - those that have yet semesters and years to muster before they finally wear that most coveted academic regalia. I wondered for a moment how they'd remember our class or if they'd remember anything at all. What with all the holidays, official trips and official meetings I had to attend which occasionally meant canceling classes? Even if the second semester seemed like a rushing wind, I hope they have remembered something worthwhile in our classes. I hope it is enough to help them make that significant difference the world needs.
Congratulations to the MSU graduates of 2010 and congratulations to my English 2 students who made it in class last semester.
