Dear #Classof2023,
If you were a college freshman/rookie in 2019, you didn't complete your first year in-person as the world & life as we knew it changed on March 11th 2020 due to #COVID19. You spent all of the 2020-2021 school year online & portions of 2021-2022 (and likely some of 2022-2023).
Your first semester (Freshmen in Fall 2019) may have been your only 100% in-person Fall & your last semester (Seniors in Spring 2023) may have been your only 100% in-person Spring.
You overcame a once-in-a-century calamity to cross the stage as a college graduate - congrats on this accomplishment as a truly historic graduating class 👩🏻🎓🧑🏻🎓👨🏻🎓
P.S. I gave my first #Zoom lecture on March 11 2020 for my Statistics/SPSS students at California State University San Marcos
