Congratulations, Graduate! (Part I)


At the end of this semester, we'll be bidding farewell to Chris Smith, who is receiving his B.A. in Anthropology and French. With his undergraduate degree squared away, he intends to fly west where he'll attend San Francisco State University to begin working on a master's degree in Museum Studies. While he'll miss the friends he's leaving behind at I.U., he's very excited about moving to California. He's also looking very forward to learning more about working in museums and seeing what comes next with his career.

Chris has a bit of advice for those still working on an undergraduate degree. Looking back on it all, he believes that "it's important to study hard, do your homework, and get good grades. But what is even more important is to try new things, have fun and adventure, build great friendships, fall in love, and do all those other things young adults tend to do." He stresses that if we're confident in who we are and what we're capable of, we'll be fine.

We'll miss him, but we know Chris will be fine too. Our best wishes go with him as he ends one chapter in his life and begins the next. CONGRATULATIONS, CHRIS!
