Congrats from a fellow graduate!I think I can speak for everyone when I quote fictional news anchor and part-time philosopher, Ron Burgundy, when I say, "Boy... that escalated quickly". It seems just like yesterday it was my first day on campus. I know what you are thinking... "Hey, newsletter... How do you know what I'm going through?" Believe it or not, the author of this piece (and ongoing editor of the newsletter) is a graduating student, too! I think I can speak on behalf of everyone in the Division of Student Experience when I say CONGRATULATIONS! I know this is not the ideal way to wrap up your YSU journey... however, this is still a major milestone in our lives. Be sure to celebrate, reflect, and look to the next major step in your life. Remember, like OK GO sang, "this too shall pass". Until then, stay healthy, stay safe, and crank up some music to celebrate your accomplishments! GO GUINS!—Alex, Ankerman, Masters of Education, Student Affairs
