Class of 2020 Newsletter: May 15, 2020

You've made it. Today is the last day of finals and the rest is a celebration! The celebrations may look different, but that should not take away from the pride you feel about finishing your undergraduate college career. I've had the pleasure of getting to know some of you and it is very clear that your class is so connected to one another and so thoughtful. It has been an honor getting to know you as students. #McDaniel20 #GreenTerror4Life

Dear Class of 2020,

You've made it. Today is the last day of finals and the rest is a celebration! The celebrations may look different, but that should not take away from the pride you feel about finishing your undergraduate college career.

I've had the pleasure of getting to know some of you and it is very clear that your class is so connected to one another and so thoughtful. It has been an honor getting to know you as students.

You are all so full of great new ideas, you see the changes you want and are willing to make them happen, you are full of amazing plans for your futures, and certainly filled with love for the Hill and the people you have met on it. You are a remarkable group and I cannot wait to get to know you more as alumni.&

Virtual Senior Week events are planned, so be sure to register for the events through the link in the Alumni Relations update at the end!

As you transition to life after college, you are invited to provide feedback on your educational experience at McDaniel and share information about your post-graduation plans. Your responses will be used to help shape the experience of future McDaniel students. Please take the survey whether you have something concrete lined up or are still in the process of planning. Thanks for your help to ensure that we have 100 percent participation from the Class of 2020.
