Our Two Newest College Graduates

On May 8, 2009, Lizzie graduated from the University of Utah with a Masters Degree in Political Science. We attended her graduation. The speakers were very good. I was quite impressed with the student speaker. The commencement exercises were held in the Huntsman Center on Campus at 9 a.m. The convocation ceremony was held at 11:15 a.m. in the Huntsman Center. There were over 7100 graduates in the class of 2009 and over 1400 graduates in the College of Social and Behavioral Science. That is the largest college at the University. Both ceremonies were over by 12:45 p.m. The three of us climbed on Trax and rode downtown where we had a nice lunch together. Congratulations, Lizzie!
Our second graduate is our daughter-in-law, Michelle. She graduated on May 9, 2009 from the University of Wyoming with a Bachelors Degree in Social Science with an emphasis in Psychology and minor in Sociology. Due to work restraints in Texas, Michelle was unable to attend her commencement exercises in Wyoming. Congratulations, Michelle!

We are extremely proud of both of you!
