Columbian College Graduation Celebration 2011
"Your ongoing achievement will be measured by how you choose to conduct your life and the impact of those choices. It is my sincere hope that you will take what you’ve learned and use it as a springboard for contributing meaningful solutions in your community and the world beyond.”
—Peg Barratt
