Yes, undergraduate college work does end. I can now personally testify to that. After four years at BYU and four major changes I finally graduated with my bachelors of arts in political science. Much of my motivation to finish school in the face of senioritis this past year is because of Meghan. I owe much of this degree to her.
Meghan also graduated, earning her bachelors of science in home and family living summa cum laude. Her parents came from Michigan for the event and were here for five days, bringing with them Sizzler dinners and wedding plans needing approval.
Bukran, Milhouse, & Campos: we've come a long way from W-Hall our freshman year. By this summer we'll all be married and I'll be the only one without a kid.
A large chunk of this degree is also due to my parents. Without their unwavering support and love this education dealio would have been far more of an uphill climb.
The Capstone Gang: Mark, Adam, and Houston. We sat next to each other during convocation and discussed life, marriage, our plans for after graduation, and (of course) politics. Professor Christensen, our capstone professor, was handing out diploma cases. When he saw us ("his friends") all in a row his smile grew to be a mile wide and his handshake was indeed personal. What a character...what a great professor.
Commencement ended up being a much ado about nothing. Those who boycotted it ended up the dunces: for President Hinckley and Elders Scott and Bednar came along with Vice President Cheney! Cheney's ultra-benign micro-speech on life lessons he's learned made even the most hardened Democrat blush with the realization that political zealotry sometimes gets in the way of life and common sense.
