To be honest, there have been very few graduations i have ever attended. Some of the reasons are typically male… I wasn’t around.
When my eldest daughter Kristin was graduating from West Point, I was coaching at the California State High School Meet. Now, don’t groan… my middle daughter Karen was competing on the same day and I stayed and coached — while Mom went to West Point.
Not that I have attended many of my own graduations. I missed my two graduate degree festivities except for a small Beta Gamma Sigma ceremony the day before at Southern Cal.
This time it will be different. I will at long last see a Southern Cal Graduation as Karen recieves her Masters in Strategic Public Relations. Interestingly enough, Ted Koppel will be the Commencement Speaker in the main ceremony.
This will be fun … I will be coming home.
