Dear Class of 2022 ... Love, ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø

May 18, 2022
by Chris Cruz, Julia Marco, and Angela Valden

Four years ago, the Class of 2022 arrived on campus and joined a community that — true to the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø spirit — often feels like family. 

From classwork and campus life to internships and athletics, the graduates have left an impression on faculty and staff in every corner of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø. And, in an era that has challenged and inspired so many, there is perhaps no better time to take a moment to share what's in our hearts. 

In this message to the Class of 2022, several faculty and staff members come together to gift a few final words to these exceptional graduates.

  • Subhan Ali, international student and scholar advisor, Student Academic Services
  • Rodrigo Schneider, assistant professor, Economics Department
  • John Winnek, retail operations supervisor, Dining Services 
  • Tim Harper, associate professor, Management and Business Department
  • Barbara Black, professor, English Department 
  • Tom Yoshikami, assistant director for engagement, Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery
