Senior Presentations - Class of 2020
Congratulations!
This spring finds us in a challenging moment, with unprecedented stresses, emotional, and professional burdens. While you, the class of 2020, are not (yet!) celebrating your graduation as expected, we encourage you to find purpose and joy in the amazing work you have accomplished. Particularly in these past two months as you have completed your work, know that the questions and problems you ask and address below will serve you and the world as you embark on your next adventures. Now more than ever the world needs your intellect and skills: nurses that promote health and wellness and combat addiction, entrepreneurs to change the world, scientists to pave the road for the new vaccines and gene therapy, historians to uncover untold stories of the past, musicians to create and make us human, and computer scientists to push the boundaries of A.I. Usually, on the morning of Baccalaureate, a small group of seniors from across the college, chosen by their departments, come together to present their Senior Learning Community project to family, friends, and faculty. While we cannot be in person to do this, we offer these ‘artifacts’ to our community, and invite all to enjoy and celebrate the accomplishments of these outstanding students who have completed the final leg of their Wagner Plan with great success.
