Perhaps more than any other graduating class at the University of Washington Bothell, the Class of 2020 can feel a sense of accomplishment for just making it to graduation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since mid-March, the coronavirus pandemic forced students, faculty and staff into remote operations. 足彩app哪个是正规的 29th annual Commencement<\/a> was a virtual ceremony that participants attended through the screens of their computers and mobile devices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was safe and healthy but not the Commencement anyone had imagined, Chancellor Wolf Yeigh said. Yet, faculty, staff, families and friends could not have been more proud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Virtual now, see you later <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A few words were repeated over and over in posts, presentations, interviews and speeches: perseverance, resilience, adaptability and pride. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cauce said the Class of 2020 would have \u201cextra steel in your spine from what you endured this year.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Purple Carpet show leading up to the ceremony, Yeigh told interviewers, \u201cThis has been a difficult year for everyone, especially our graduating seniors, but through it all they persevered and made things happen. 足彩app哪个是正规的y got through a very difficult spring quarter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTake the moment to enjoy, and we\u2019ll have our pomp and circumstance in person next year,\u201d Yeigh said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From UW Bothell, with love <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each of the UW Bothell graduates in the ceremony video had a moment on the screen with their name, school, degree, photo and a comment, usually of thanks to family and supporters. Individuals also could be found in the \u201cGrad Moment\u201d search on the webpage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You did it. I\u2019m so incredibly proud of you. Go out and change the world for the better. You are our future. And, welcome to the alumni family.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keynote speaker Abigail Echo-Hawk, chief research officer for the Seattle Indian Health Board (American Studies ’07, Master of Arts in Policy Studies ’09) said, \u201cI\u2019m so impressed by the work you have done and the work you will continue to do in these uncertain times.

In the future, when people recall the pandemic, they\u2019ll say the Class of 2020 was adaptable and determined. It proved that a community is bigger than a physical space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
