文森地区,印第安纳州. - Around 575 Vincennes University graduates of the Class of 2024 walked across the stage at the P.E. Complex during Saturday’s 218th annual Spring Commencement.
澳门足球博彩官方网址校长博士. Chuck Johnson conferred 2,192 degrees to the Class of 2024 across all campuses and sites. The diverse cohort of graduates represents 澳门足球博彩官方网址’s commitment to excellence, and showcases the University's widespread impact, with grads hailing from 75 of 印第安纳州’s 92 counties, 27 other states plus the District of Columbia, and six countries, reflecting 澳门足球博彩官方网址's global presence.
澳门足球博彩官方网址教务长. Laura Treanor presided over the ceremony where graduates received bachelor's and associate degrees, as well as certificates of program completion. President Johnson extended greetings to the Class of 2024. The ceremony was streamed live on the 澳门足球博彩官方网址 YouTube channel.
During his greetings, Johnson shared three valuable lessons with the graduates. His first lesson was to "Be Curious," followed by "Be Kind."
“It is fitting that here at Vincennes University where our motto is “Learn in Order to Serve” that doing things for others is one of the best ways we can show kindness,约翰逊说.
His final lesson was to "Count your blessings, not your grievances."
“You can live your life focused on your grievances or focused on your blessings. The former is much easier but leads to a more difficult life. The latter is more difficult but leads to a much better life,约翰逊说.
