As alumni of St. Cloud State University, you know the importance your degree has had on your careers and citizenship in today’s global society.
As a faculty or staff member, you know the great impact the work you do has on students and the workforce leaders they become.
As a current student, you know that there is value in a college degree. We’re glad you and your families chose St. Cloud State to provide you with an education to make a difference.
In May, more than 1,610 St. Cloud State students received their degrees and were ready to turn the page to the next chapter in their careers. They came to our university from towns such as St. Cloud, Minnetonka and Menahga. They hail from Russia, Florida and California. They hold passports from Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka, Canada and China. And they graduated with the skills to create a better future for themselves, their families and for
their communities.
While some may not yet know what will come next for them, spring graduates are already putting their degrees to work. It’s these stories of our student and alumni successes that sustain me and give me a boost to continue approaching each new challenge in higher education with energy and enthusiasm.
Please join me in celebrating our spring 2015 graduates and their new careers.
