Gil graduated!! I can't express how incredibly proud I am of this man and all his hard work and accomplishments. I have watched him get up incredibly early in the morning to catch the train into south Sac to make it to class when he was at the community college and anxiously watched the clock waiting for him to come home from a late evening lab. I have watched him sit at our kitchen table with his books for entire weekends doing homework and I have kept Wesley from swallowing countless small electronical parts for school projects. I have never seen anyone so focused.
Riverside Hall was the building where he had many of his engineering classes and labs. (Wesley is posing behind the sign.)
On campus taking pictures, we had to stop and smell the roses... now that Gil has time to smell the roses.
It's a really big sign. Can you see his hands?
Tassel worth the hassle or tassel is a hassle? It was a windy day. Sac State held a Car-mencement, where graduates were able to drive through campus, similar to other events all over the country. We decorated the car and then drove through the bands and the cheering staff, the mascot and cheerleaders, and tv screens of people giving speeches.
I was so pleased with the mortar board Gil made and put on the roof of the car. Unfortunately, it didn't make it all the way through campus.
Congratulations, Gil! We are so proud of you and excited for what comes next.
