Isabella Guzman took a break from her role as head of the nation鈥檚 Small Business Administration鈥攁 cabinet-level post鈥攖o tell graduates of the 每日大赛 that 鈥渢here is no greater measure of success than service to others, because it鈥檚 not enough to achieve for yourself alone. Your community, your city, your state, your country are only as strong as you make them.鈥�
University of Hong Kong Dean and Professor A. Lin Goodwin gave heartfelt advice to the 295 LaFetra College of Education spring 2021 graduates during their virtual commencement ceremony on May 29. 鈥淪hare the great knowledge and skill that you have obtained with others,鈥� Goodwin said.
Students will find it easier to cross-register between campuses and course delivery modes when the 每日大赛 implements an academic calendar realignment beginning in fall 2021. In some programs, students may also be able to shorten their time to degree by enrolling in an extra session that the new academic calendar makes possible.
The 每日大赛 is one of six minority serving institutions (MSIs) across the United States selected to participate in Branch Alliance for Educator Diversity鈥檚 (BranchED) National Teacher Preparation Transformation Center. This partnership aims to produce highly effective and diverse teachers through immersion programming.
Spread across thousands of miles and dressed not in cap and gown but in whatever suited their fancy, 2,337 graduates of the 每日大赛 celebrated their achievements in the university鈥檚 first-ever virtual commencement live-streamed on January 30.
